The Razorleaf-Class is a total reimagining of what the Razorleaf is, as well as the Mantis. Rather than the Razorleaf being the pirate hunter legend, The Mantis', ship, instead we must imagine that "The Mantis" is the NAME of a legendary pirate-hunting UC naval SHIP.

Many years ago, during the tail end of the UC's campaign against the Crimson Fleet. the United Colonies ordered an experimental frigate featuring a spinal mounted particle cannon array ship from Deimos Staryards. If the naval trials were a success, then the vessel was to be mass produced and become a pirate-fighting back bone ship for the UCSysDef. This vessel was given the designator, "Razorleaf-Class," with the first and only experimental vessel in production being named, the "UCNS-X Mantis."

The trials were live, as in, The Mantis and its crew were sent after REAL pirates. The Mantis took down many pirates during the live trials, and began to earn itself infamy amongst Crimson Fleet members. The Mantis proved to be extremely capable of taking down small fries as well as larger pirate capital vessels. The Razorleaf-class got the UC SysDef stamp of approval.

Despite the Razorleaf's exceedingly successful trials however, the project was ultimately scrapped by the Navy. Unfortunately, the cost of each vessel was quite high. And during the conclusion of the vessel's trials, the UC council decided to hit the brakes on the Crimson Fleet campaign; the Razorleaf-Class was deemed too expensive and unnecessary. The council decided to shelve the Razorleaf project indefinitely. The UCNS-X Mantis was ordered to drydock at a secure United Colonies facility.

Fast forward to current times. CDR Ikande of SysDef knows it's finally time to strike the Fleet once and for all. He has submit a request to the UC Government to bring the Mantis out of drydock to serve the Navy once again. And he knows just who the captain of this legendary vessel should be...
