Information
Most of the Nebulon-B2 Frigates served in the Imperial Navy, although a few ships found their way into the hands of the Alliance and other groups, probably in the same ways they acquired the original Nebulon-B.
Though it shared a similar profile with its predecessor, the Nebulon-B2 differed in some key ways. The forward pod split into an inverted-V shape, the connecting spar was heavier, and the ship was about 50 meters shorter overall. Sublight speed was 17% faster, and shield strength and hull durability were both improved. The Nebulon-B2 was also armed with a concussion missile launcher, which its predecessor lacked.
History
The Suppressor was stationed with one of the Antei Defense Groups near Merach in the Antei System until Taldryan was given it by Grand Master Jac Cotelin and Deputy Grand Master Xanos for a victory in the Selen Incident. The Suppressor saw a short life with the Clan as it was destroyed in the Battle of Antei by two Tarentum Gunships.
