Description: The Myriad-class, as it has come to be known, was originally a failed heavy freighter design in the archives of the CEC. It was noted as being too expensive with a myriad of design flaws (hence the eventual name). Uncovering the design, Ayden proposed a second look as a possible paramilitary design. Subsystems were gutted and updated while the design team worked to better focus on design elements that would help market the ship for paramilitary use.
To that end, the MCR-160 was armed with two dual turbolaser cannons and two dual ion cannons, four concussion missile launchers, and six quad laser turrets. The neck connecting the cockpick to the main body of the ship received heavier armor plating to stave off attempts at focusing fire on such a vulnerable spot. Sporting a pair of tractor beams, unusual for a corvette, the MCR-160 is a perfect patrol ship, allowing it to trap targets, both military and criminal. And with an optional detention cell area, the ship sees wide-spread use as both a Protectorate ship and a police ship.
