Pioneer Class Patrol Boat
Following formal Martian independence in 2189 the newly formed Martian Self Defense Force found itself with a ragtag fleet of small capital ships and various converted civilian vessels. By 2227 growing unrest in the belt and outer colonies made it obvious that a dedicated fleet would be needed to defend Martian interests across the system. So a plan was drafted to replace every Martian vessel then in service, and by 2239 work began on the new Martian defense fleet. Included in the plan was the creation of a Martian Orbital Guard intended to operate in a security and law enforcement role close to Mars and her colonies.
The Pioneer Class was designed as a short range patrol craft for anti-piracy and anti-smuggling duty. Its small size meant that could be operated from most colonies with little outside support. Equipped with only a single forward mounted laser turret and two magnetic harpoons the Pioneer class was intended to disable a target vessel from a distance before closing, grappling, and boarding the target. All vessels of this class sport the distinct orange and black stripes of the Martian Orbit Guard.
