Notes:

The "Julian" Class Armed Scout was designed on Aquitaine in the early 1190's
as a multi-purpose ship capable of independent exploratory missions beyond
the borders of the Near Bootes Commonwealth.  The Type 11 (the type's formal
designation) carries a reasonable weapons array (normal loadout consists of
3 120Mj Laser turrets), and is relatively well armoured.

The Type 11 is now being produced under license by most of the Commonwealth
worlds, with variations in design.  The most common variant is the Type
11-2, with jump maneuver drives downgraded to jump-2 and 1G respectively.
The increased cargo space has made this variant a popular merchant craft,
gradually replacing old Free and Far Traders as they wear out.  The Type
11-3 sacrifices maneuver performance for an impressive sensor and ECM array,
while the Type 11-5 (produced by Hamilcar), with no jump drives and 4G
maneuver, is the mainstay of that world's system defense force.

To date, 23 examples of this type have been produced:  11 Type 11-0/1's, 8
Type 11-2's, 1 Type 11-3 and 4 Type 11-5's.  Production continues.

Stats above are for the Type 11-1.
