The Aten poses little threat alone, it can be only dangerous when armed with tactical weapons such as the [[Morning Star]] or the [[Lamprey]]. It does not have flaks or AAAf beams by default so it is the most useless cruiser against fighters in [[FreeSpace 2]]. However, in FreeSpace 1, it is a proper cruiser against not-so-well armed fighters. | The Aten poses little threat alone, it can be only dangerous when armed with tactical weapons such as the [[Morning Star]] or the [[Lamprey]].

The GVC Aten was the oldest cruiser-tzpe Vasudan vessel known in the Galaxy. The Aten was a valuable addition to the Vasudan navy up until th appearance of the Shivans in the Great War. The Reconstruction period saw the complete removal of the Aten-class from active service after the appearance of more advanced weaponry and its sequel, the GVC Mentu.
