This is a proposed Comet refit, meant for quick research and development (and production) of a Vanguard Frigate in case of a war. Existing Comet-class ships are not intended to be refit, as the D8 Comet is necessary for fleet operations, but as a refit of an existing design can be developed in a single year, the proposed refit is a quick way to turn existing design expertise into a powerful and sturdy combat frigate. However, in a war emergency it may be possible that a limited number of Comets may be refit, as the refit of 25/25 is not unreasonable for a frigate.

This design is available in 2325, and with build time reductions can be produced in the mandatory minimum time of 1.5 years.

Refit Cost: 25 br, 25 sr
