==Overview:==
The first WarShip ever to be produced in the Magistracy, the Type 2560 Cutters
still serve in her navy after nearly 200 years of service. Once there were
nearly a hundred of these vessels, but that was before the Reunification War
ran its course Now there are only 33 left in service and these are due to be
phased out in the near future. There current purpose is to serve as an
interdictor against smuggling and anti-piracy, as well as a disaster repsonse
and rescue vessel.
If one were to draw on history for an example of what the current mission
profile, you would have to look no farther than the Coast Guard service of the
United States of America, an ancient Terra nation-state.
==Capabilities:==
The 2560 is a small, agile craft with excellent armor protection for its size.
It's glaring weakness is its armament, which is nearly non-existent. It is
adequate for dealing with non-combat JumpShips, the chosen convey ance of
pirates and smugglers, but it would fair poorly against slightly larger craft
like the Vincent or Bonaventure.
==Notable Vessels & Crews:==

Thresher, Alabcore, Guppy, Balao, Growler, Grouper, Salmon, Walleye, Perch,

==Deployment==
All thirty-three vessels are scattered throughout the Canopina region of
space, with Dunianshire and Canopus IV having the largest concentratoions of
these vessels.
