Description	This is the latest in the Frontier series Premier Space Citadels (PSC) created by SpaceGlow. Its main purpose is that of a command centre which can hold its own in combat. The Frontier is of destroyer type but it is most often used as a small mothershup. It was commissioned by Andoronia which bought it in large quantities in the NGST era, but now SpaceGlow have little difficulty finding buyers to pick up the slack. Forte has been a good customer of late, as well as Nilen. The Frontier has quite impressive Redundancy for a destroyer which allows it to bring 2 Sargott-Pan ships into foldspace with it.
