The Depender 750 is an important new ship in the New Sparta export portfolio being the first type designed for smaller names not a modified NS type. The ship is based on the Friendship platform but is a multi-role type which does not have an analogue in the NS fleet (though it is thought they might buy some for the intelligence gathering role in the next ship building plan).
Eighteen are on order already and NS has just delivered the first 2 to the Solar Empire. These are Depender 751SEs and will be used in the fleet support role. They have been fitted with extensive docking bays for small craft.
