The '''''Trojan''''' is a militarized refit version of the ''[[Danais (DropShip class)|Danais]]'' class, developed by disgruntled Periphery citizens in the face of Star League oppression. The ''Danais'' in turn is a small spheroid [[DropShip]] design which was originally conceived as an unarmed light cargo ship during the [[Star League era]], one of the few ship classes allowed to be produced in [[Periphery]] states by the [[Star League]]. Consequently, although often used in a military role, the ''Trojan'' is built to civilian (as opposed to military) specs.

Although it is frequently treated as a distinct ship class, the ''Trojan'' is arguably just a refit variant of the ''Danais''. No new ships are built directly to ''Trojan'' specifications, and it is even questionable if there is a "standard" configuration for a ''Trojan'' beyond being a converted and upgunned ''Danais''.

Given its nature as a refit, and that the configuration discussed above is merely considered "typical", it would seem that the ''Trojan'' moniker is applied to many different variations of armed ''Danais'' vessels, to the point where no two ''Trojan''s might be alike.
