History
In 3050 Beta Galaxy’s Flagship of Clan Smoke Jaguar was the Veiled Huntress, her class was not specified at this point. [1] She participated in the Turtle Bay attack. [2] One picture published of the Turtle Bay attack shows 2 ships firing against the City. [3] These ships are an Essex class Destroyer and a Vincent Mk.42 class Corvette. Two drop-ships are also pictured, as neither the Essex nor the Vincent carry drop-ships other jump-ships or warships must be in system. The use of multiple warships in this action is attested by Anastasius Focht in 3052. [4] The Essex has previously been identified as the Sabre Cat. It is unlikely that the Vincent is the Veiled Huntress as she is too small to act as a flagship.
A Texas class Battleship is reported in the Jaguar Occupation Zone in 3050-51. [5] It is possible that the Jaguars controlled a Texas. Seven vessels of this class survived the Exodus, however two were later destroyed during the Exodus Civil War [6] All of these are accounted for. Four of these belong to the Coyotes [7], Snow Ravens [8], Jade Falcons [9] and Clan Wolf [10]. The fifth is the Prinz Eugen, now used as a prison facility. [11] So if the Jaguars did have a Texas it would have to have been a newly built one or a refurbishment of one of the two derelicts left after the Exodus Civil War.
The Sabre Cat was misidentified in one report of the Turtle Bay action as a Texas class Battleship. [12] However this does confirm the presence of a Texas during the fighting, the most likely candidate for this ship is the Veiled Huntress.[13]
