Jrathek in prototype colors, Sol Sector circa 2667.

Jrathek, circa 2669.

Jrathek flown off KIS Shiraak, Evian System circa 2669.

Development of the Jrathek was discovered in the late 2660s when Kilrathi scientist Hajjnah defected carrying plans. As a result, the Jrathek prototype was simulated in the Terran Confederation Space Naval Academy's Cyberschool's holographic simulator before it saw active service. Jrathek were serving with front line units by early 2669, where they were commonly used for reconnaisance missions. A Jrathek off the KIS Shiraak first located the TCS Lexington's vapor trails. The fighter briefly held a speed record as the fastest Kilrathi fighter.

Weapons of the Terran and Kilrathi Fleets

When Hajjnah, the renowned Kilrathi scientist and engineer, defected to the TCS Viking, he brought with him blueprints detailing the design of a Kilrathi ship currently in development. This Jrathek fighter has been prototyped in the TCSN simulator to prepare our students for the newest Kilrathi threat. Similar to the Wraith, the Jrathek will be equipped with strong shields and armor; in addition, its maneuverability and speed will make it the fastest Kilrathi fighter ship. However, its weapon loadout is less impressive. The Jrathek is the only Kilrathi ship you can both pilot and fly against in your simulation training.
