History

The Draconis Rift was one of the four Kyushu-class frigates to be undergoing shakedown trials in late 3058 before entering service with the black water navy of the Draconis Combine as the DCS Draconis Rift. The sister ships to the Draconis Rift undergoing extensive trials at the same time were the DCS Dream of Kessel, the DCS Luthien and DCS Victory at Wolcott, although only the Dreams of Kessel was undergoing trials in the Dieron system alongside the Draconis Rift.[1]

By 3067 a number of Kyushu-class WarShips had been lost in action, but the Draconis Rift continued to serve the Draconis Combine Admiralty;[2] the Draconis Rift was one of a handful of Combine WarShips to survive the Jihad, and by 3079 was deployed to the New Samarkand system.[3]
