Deimos Clipperships was a manufacturer of DropShuttles (DropShip precursors of up to 5,000 tons) in the Terran Hegemony.
Overview[edit]
They pioneered the classic Docking Collar principle in conjuction with Blue Nose Interstellar Technologies, building the DCS Nimbus III which was the first DropShip with a docking collar that could be docked to a JumpShip hardpoint with a Kearny-Fuchida Boom and thus be carried along for the jump. Attached to the JumpShip BNS Olympus, the Nimbus III was first carried through a jump in 2458.[1]
By 2468 Deimos Clipperships were producing the Clippership V, an updated Clippership IV that could attach to JumpShips. They also introduced the Czar-class DropShip for the Hegemony Armed Forces.[1]
At this same time, Deimos partnered with Blue Nose Interstellar Technologies to form Blue Nose Clipperships.[1]
