The Graygrenn class torpedoboat is the smallest class of non-fighter or bomber warship fielded by the Remnant Conglomerate's Babel Armed Military Force - 'BAMF'. It is a high-speed, low-armor vessel with minimal crew with no FTL capability meant to hunt in packs or patrol a system. It is armed with light but dangerous anti-ship weaponry that can cripple if not destroy unlucky enemy starships.

The interior of the graygrenn is rather cramped; Consisting of one long hallway from the rear of the ship to the cockpit. The interior of this hall is broken up into several cubby-style doors that lead into small cubbies that house connecting ducts to things like the ammo stores, powerplant, critical systems, electronics, etc.
The Graygrenn was the lovechild of BTS as a way to retrofit and re-use a lot of ground-to-void shuttles for military use upon completing the construction of the Tower of Babel space elevator. The project required very little; Filling up the interior space with important systems instead of cargo space and bolting on torpedo tubes and other weapons mounts.
The graygrenn is very weapon-heavy for its size. Sporting two 205mm mass-drivers with one on its front and one of the back on coaxial turrets with a 360 degree firing arc capable of punching through light frigate-tier armor up close, two 76mm mass driver autocannons for close-in fighting, two eight-torpedo baby-torpedo launchers capable of crippling light starships, and four intimidating light anti-ship torpedoes capable of breaking the back of cruisers if scoring a direct hit.
Weapon | Range | RPM |
---|---|---|
205mm MD | 12km +/- | 30rpm |
Dual 76mm MD | 5km +/- | 120rpm |
Baby Torpedo | 30km +/- | N/a |
Anti-ship Torpedo | 70km | N/a |
For armor, the graygrenn has a mix-match of a mostly ablative plate on its fueselage, body, and flanks, and a cockpit that can withstand ballistic force and shrapnel up to direct 20mm rounds.
The graygrenn has enough room for a single pilot, gunner, and engineer.
