Description

During the second half of the 22nd Century the Quarians employ two types of Corvettes inside the Migrant Flotilla. The rather lighter Scout Corvette which were also used as civilian transport or as a fast surveillance ship, and the Heavy Corvette, a military grade ship made for combat.

Corvettes are typically small frigates, crewed with less than 30. It is traditionally the smallest class of vessel considered to be a proper warship.
They are not meant for deep space missions because they are dependent on constant refueling and restocking. These ships dont have shuttlebays or crew quartiers.
Corvettes where usually used for protecting larger ships but can also be used for multiple roles, such as torpedo bomber, boarding party insertion, missile defense, customs enforcement, law enforcement, reconnaissance, and surveillance.

The Quarian Flotilla needed these fast corvettes to defend the civilian fleet against agile pirate forces such as Batarian Gunships or Vorcha Void Fighters.

Most Corvettes are part of the Patrol Fleet inside the Quarian Flotilla, managing navigation, internal security, and intership conflicts or crimes. In times of war they are assigned to guard the Heavy Fleet's flank. The Patrol Fleet is commanded by Admiral Shala'Raan vas Tonbay.
