Chimera was found shut down in deep space by telescopes in 3 AP with confirmation that it was at least mostly intact in 9 AP.

A purposeful built rescue rocket ship was sent to it in 27 AP and after 103 days of repairs was able to use the fission power from a reactor brought along to power it enough to use it's maneuver thrusters to make it to Bayaran orbit in 71 further days.

It was then repaired over the next three years and was commissioned again as Chimera and is the most advanced of the ships in the system, being more than 80% federation technology including it's very tough hull.

In it's early career it mostly served as a tug due to it's powerful engines. But once the colonization of Suskillion started to increase in intensity it moved mostly to being a colonist transport.

Now as war is going on, it has been used as troop and supply carrier and is now armed with three space combat lasers.
