Maltese Falcon-Class
Although comfortable, it is not as luxurious as some yachts, but its fast interplanetary speed, defensive armament, and decent armor makes it a popular choice for those dignitaries who place a high value on speed and security. The ship uses a 1,000-ton (SM +8) streamlined hull about 45 meters long. Ships are named for fictional treasures.
It is a typical yacht for minor noble houses and yacht rental services.
