Type | DropShip |
Class | Argo |
One of only two prototypes ever built of the Argo-class of DropShip, the Myrmidon was under construction by Boeing Interstellar at their Galax shipyard. (The other was the Argo, which was sent on its maiden voyage in 2762 and subsequently dropped out of contact.)[1]
History[edit]
The Myrmidon was never completed. While still being prepared for its maiden voyage (implicitly between 2762 and 2766) it was damaged in dock in a terrorist action and never repaired. The fall of the Star League and the subsequent wars had no use for such a large peacetime explorer vessel, and the Myrmidon was eventually broken up for parts and materials while the shipyards were retooled for wartime production.[1][2]
