The Dagger Gunboat was the first Light Capital ships to fly out of our shipyards and thus has seen the most refits and has the most service hours of any fleet vessel. She is a very capable little ship, it's equipped with two L5-1 AM2-2 Standard Turrets, one L4-1 AM2-1 Low Profile Deck Gun, Four Linear AMC Batteries and twin SD-BB Missile Tubes. The Dagger may be slightly smaller than a Rapier Corvette and she lacks the style of the newer ships but she more than makes up for in firepower.
The Dagger is operated by a crew of four and is not suited for solo deep space and is primarily a heavy patrol ship but she is often involved in fleet operations along side carriers or running government escort.
