The Dienjzhiae class intelligence corvette is a highly sought-after prize by Imperial Navy intelligence circles. They had recently appeared in and near borders shared with the Imperium. It was only just identified in 1115 as an intelligence collection vessel, following the pursuit of one in the Villis system that ended with the corvette scuttling itself in a nuclear explosion to prevent capture. It is tasked with collecting signals and imagery and conducting systems reconnaissance missions. Some circles suggest that the vessels are also involved in special operations due to electronic and visual stealth technology. Sharing the same hull as the Berka, Bra’La, & Banya-class fleet corvettes allows it some ability to disguise itself as commonplace within and around Zhodani space. The Dienjzhiae class is built by Idar Nobsl shipyards under very tight security to prevent the disclosure of the intelligence collection systems on board. Due to the nature of sensitive operations conducted by these vessels’ the crews are hand-picked for security and professionalism. It is known that full Commanders are appointed to command these vessels instead of the usual Lieutenant Commanders.
