The Taurus Class Cruiser is the true workhorse of the Taurus Corporation's navy. It is the largest mass produced ship by Taurus Corporation Shipyards, and is one of the more advance ship models they manufacture. Although the model is relatively new, coming into use within the last two decades, it has become extremely widespread. When in the Taurus Sector, the presence of these ships is generally recognised as a symbol of strong Corporation control.
