Description: 

The Turtle class is a specialised anti-snubfighter that is only seen as part of larger battlegroups. As a cost-saving exercise they are based on a modified and extended frame from the Reaper class corvettes.
The second ship from the FLaT PACK Programme. The Turtle is mass produced and comes in three variations:

• Tu/a
• Tu/b
• Tu/c

This vessel is defined to fill a specialist roll and work as part of flexible tactical units that can be tailored to deal with any situation. It is intended to work as part of a “mixed-economy” battle group of specialised vessels that excel at their own role and collectively form effective, tactical units.
They either: hold back with carriers and long range ordnance vessels that are exposed to fighters, or escort cruisers into battle. They are frequently seen covering gunboats and Scythe class cruisers as they assault carriers.
