ClassInvader

The Cucamulus (Cu for short) was an Invader-class JumpShip[1] operated by the Kell Hounds. It was previously the Draconis Combine's Tsume.[2]

The Tsume was originally a JumpShip with the 9th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre when they staged a raid against Mara as essentially a training exercise. Over the course of the fighting the defending Kell Hounds' DropShip Lugh moved out to the JumpShip at the zenith jump point under the pretense of mutiny and indicated they wanted to surrender. However, upon docking with the JumpShip the Lugh released anaesthetic gas into the Tsume where the Sun Zhang cadet crew had gathered to accept their surrender.

The Tsume was captured and, now under the command of Janos Vandermeer, was renamed Cucamulus.
