Federaton Retrieval Boat

In the midst of the 23rd Century, the expanding Terran Federation ran headlong into the space hungry, reptiloid Ralnai Imperium. Conflict was Inevitable, considering the warrior emphasis of the Ralnai society.

The resultant Second Starwar was a running conflict consisting of raids, surprise attacks, and lightning assaults on space and surface facilities and civilian population centers. Foremost among the problems confronting the military commanders on both sides, was the question of how to get troops quickly on to the surface of a planet without subjecting transport starships to the deadly effects of ground based fire.

One of the most effective answers proved to be the shuttle craft or Retrieval Boat, in Federation nomenclature. The Ralnai word for their equivalent translates as "Downship". These vessels were not merely ship to surface transports, but were hyperspace capable small starships.
