Hyades
The Hyades is the standard JumpShip of the Taurian Concordat. Massing 190,000 tons, this design carries four docking collars, but is unarmed. It is, however, armored nearly to the maximum for this type of spacecraft and the onboard endurance is exceptional by JumpShip standards. Seen throughout the Taurian military and civilian fleets, only one Hyades is produced each year at the sole remaining JumpShip production facility in the Concordat. Although the TDF makes extensive use of Merchant and Invader class JumpShips as well, the Hyades is the preferred vessel to carry a TDF Battalion, having just enough lift capacity to transport the four DropShips required.
