Tijuana-Class 100-dton Cutter
The Tijuana-class cutter was designed for long, slow interstellar trips, ferrying fuel and supplies to remote outposts. Its extra fuel capacity was intended to be used to refuel remote outposts, but in the end just ended up giving longer legs to a ship that lacked both cargo space and berthing space. Still, the Tijuana-class can be useful, especially if the stock jump drive is replaced with a much more efficient model. The Tijuana-class has an early jump drive, which are notorious for consuming vast quantities of fuel. The few Tijuana-class vessels still in the service of the Terran Confederation Navy retain their original gun turret, but most of these have long since been removed. With the influx of more Imperial ships and money to chase them, the Tijuana-class cutter is rapidly becoming a museum piece – and a bargain basement deal for many a budding free trader (if they can afford the upkeep).
