The Stiletto was the primary ship of the Shoran assassins for many years until they developed specialized drop-ships and cargo transports. Quick and agile, the Stiletto is equipped with a pair of sensor counter-measures. Firstly, it has a jammer that causes a 3D penalty to opposing detection rolls, and secondly it has a scrambler, that tries to mask the stiletto's signature as a ship of another type, causing a 2D penalty to identification rolls, and if the scanning ship makes the base difficulty but not the penalty, it will believe that the stiletto is a ship of whatever type the captain had put in the scrambler. After the Stiletto became obsolete, the scramblers and jammers were pulled out for components and for use in other ships. Many of the surviving ships were sold to pirates or smugglers, or were left on Shoran for parts or as training ships. After the fall of Shoran, few of these ships survived, and are highly sought after by members of the sub-legal community. 1
