ESB Poltroon Class Nuclear Submarine

The Poltroon Class of Nuclear Submarines was authorised by the Chief Secretary of the Imperial Forces in 1635.6110. The class represents an evolution of the hull design of the Asleep-class submarine employed by the Musican Navy. Any similarities with submersible vehicles of Minarborian origin are entirely coincidental.
