The Valiant Class of system defense boat is typical of locally built system defense boats in that it's fast, tough, and packs a nice punch against its opponents. Sporting 4 triple beam lasers and 4 triple missile turrets, it doesn't sacrifice offensive capabilities for agility. And it's a bit spacious inside for its 25 sophont crew, lending itself to extended cruising before needing reoutfitting. Its survivability is high as well, the bulky Tech 10 armor taking incoming fire well at Factor 9. Price is a good factor as well, its 850 million Reals price tag means it costs less than 450 MCr Imperial.

The Gralyn Union built an unspecified number of these boats, designated officially by hull numbers, unofficially named by their 'keel owner' crews. The Gralyn Defense Forces officially ignores these unofficial designations while unofficially endorsing them.
