Strengths:

• Overly Engineered: Designed with a full rig slave circuits and droid control brain. The systems of the ship are simple and narrow minded working more as a means to screen and swarm as opposed to go pound for pound with other ships.
• Automated: Designed without habitable space, the interior of the ship has been dedicated to droid brains and systems to operate the ships and control them.

Weaknesses:

• Overly Engineered: Designed small and sleek. The picket for its size lacks a hanger and many rooms, if anything to fit and automate it has filled halls and bays preventing it from being used by organic beings. No environmental systems for oxygen or climate control. The vacuum and cold able to help with heat dissipation.
• Automated: A dangerous aspect of the full rig slave circuits and droid automation. The katana fleet springs as an example of the dangers of full slave rigs and this is meant to be more advanced then that relying on droid brains to automate in place of ship crews.
• Jamming: Being a droid ship it is in danger of being jammed between the ships which can break and disrupt the swarm programming of the ships themselves.

Description: Designed by the Second fleet as a picket type ship that can run close escort duty for a fleet. The picket type ships are small, able to cloak and serve as screens moving forward in a combat situation to cherry pick targets of opportunity then swarm them to try and take one down at a time. Using information from the Maladi for how to maximize firepower and power systems within the ship. Packing it meant some main sacrifices, in terms of crew changing it over to droid brains. The automation makes the picket style ship able to move around faster then some of the larger warships and with stealth systems. Its main problem is with so much automation the swarm and wolfpack systems are able to be interrupted rendering the ships inactive.
