Designated as "subprowlers," they have extremely limited capabilities and are used mostly as exfiltration craft to escape combat situations with stealth and ease. The ''Black Cat''-class subprowlers have [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine|slipspace capacitor]] of limited use; the capacitor has enough charge for about four hours. Once the capacitor exceeded this duration, the vessel would not be able to enter slipspace. | ==Specifications== | ||
