Tymar hit big with their first design, the Lakota-class corvette. Slow but powerful, the Lakota-class corvette is the smallest ship to carry fighters. On either side of the ship, there is a hangar bay for two fighters. It also carries two laser batteries and is usually accompanied by an escort ship, usually a frigate or two assault scouts because of its slow speed. It is one of the most heavily armored corvettes in the Frontier, but because of its speed and limited defense and weaponry it is an easy target. This ship can be used in place of an assault carrier in smaller fleets, as its fighter capacity is less than that of an assault carrier, but it is cheaper to build several carrier corvettes than to build one assault carrier.
