Tier I[edit | edit source]
The Miranda-class escort is often seen accompanying Oberth-class scout vessels. It is built for combat, with good shields and respectable armament. The Miranda is best used to discourage raids and other minor border incursions.
Tier II[edit | edit source]
The improved Miranda-class light escort is faster and better armed version than the original. With its larger engines, it can respond more quickly to enemy incursions. The upgraded Miranda's superior weapons, shields and targeting systems greatly improve its combat performance.
