- Multi-Role
- In terms of combat roles, the Maniple frigate can do it all. From strike missions, to escort tasks, to patrolling, the ship is well equipped with powerful weapons and defenses.
- Undersized
- Small for its class, the Maniple frigate lacks an imposing figure, the ability to carry more than one fighter squadron, and has very limited transport/cargo capabilites.
A small but versatile ship, the Maniple frigate can fill out fleets that are not in need of specalized, role specific ships. Outfitted with powerful weapons, the MRF-12 can target both spaceships and ground targets. A picket ship squadron helps screen for missiles, torpedoes, and enemy fighters. The main drawbacks of the frigate are related to its small size. Since the MRF-12 is more of a large corvette than a frigate, it isn't really fit to transport troops, cargo, or large amounts of personelle.
