==Description:==
 
===Blue Planet Tech Room Description===
 
For a few brief years the Purusha was the pinnacle of post-GTA naval power in Sol. One of the first designs commissioned for the nascent Federation Navy, the Purusha emerged from a defense industry long constrained by economic depression and military collapse - an industry that now had both the means and the mandate to implement radical new doctrine.
 
 
 
By modern standards, the Purusha suffers from her age and status as a firstborn. Lightly armed and armored, she mounts no fighterbay and cannot safely operate alone. But she defined the traits of the modern Federation warship - fast, armed with torpedoes and mass drivers and screened by sophisticated point defenses, built around a gravity drive. While she resembles both of her descendants, her spaceframe is actually a direct ancestor of the Narayana class.
 
 
 
No Purusha frigates remain in the order of battle of the Federation's three line fleets. Most hulls of the class were decommissioned and yarded in case of emergency reactivation. Some were towed for scrap, though incomplete paperwork in the purchasing process has birthed a small flock of conspiracy theories. A few demilitarized Purushas still fly as fast couriers for private interests.
