The ''Cutter''-Class system patrol boats were designed originally for wolf-pack hit and run attacks on larger ships and went out of date at least a hundred years ago. The UFS has re-assigned a number of these older model ships to use as their patrol and transports of the Regulator teams. Many of the systems have been updated but it is still not as efficient as modern combat ships. They are however equipment with enough updates to make them more the a match for most civilian and priate vessels.</br>
