M-24B Bomber Corvette
- The M-24B is a light orbit-to-surface bomber. While its limited payload makes it ineffective against a target with even minimal defenses, its high mobility allows it to reach trouble spots rapidly. Rather than attacking enemy planets, this ship is far more often called on to take out UGTO troops that have landed on outlying colonies which will be otherwise unable to repel them. A well-developed network of rapid response bases puts these nimble little bombers within a few minutes' response time from any potential target. In many cases, the response is so rapid that enemy forces are dispatched before allied troops ever catch sight of them.

M-24S Recon Scout
- The M-24S Recon is the purest descendant of the original M-20 series. The early M-10 corvettes were considerably larger and heavier than their modern counterparts and a smaller, faster ship was needed for forward reconnaissance--thus the M-20 was born. As the role of corvettes changed into smaller, faster attack ships the M-10 series was eventually retired and M-20 variants were designed to fill combat roles. The lead class of the series is still the Recon Scout, equipped with stealth systems and long-range scanners for covert surveillance of enemy forces.

M-25A Sensor Corvette
- The M-25A is a highly mobile light attack ship employed both by the Confederated Navy and many local police forces. It is among the most heavily-armed ships of its size in known space, and carries a well-earned reputation for lethality. Many a pirate or privateer has tried to meet this little buzzsaw head-on and not lived long enough to regret it. It also carries a modest electronic warfare suite, to help it locate and identify its targets.

M-27A Stealth Corvette
- The M-27A Stealth Corvette is one of the newest innovations of the Confederated Navy. It carries a sophisticated ECM array to help it avoid detection and five torpedo launchers to rapidly dish out death and destruction. So far it has been used to great success in attacking UGTO logistical targets--their transports, engineering and supply ships--rather than their front-line forces. On a few occasions, large squadrons have brought down battle-damaged dreadnoughts--but not without casualties.
