The Duress is the most expensive light fighter available on the private market in the Tri-System. It is a civilian variant of the military's ML1B Duress-class Light Fighter.
Several notable Tri-System pilots fly the Duress, including Jak Perdies, Hengist Magnusson and Murray-Thew Latchford. Due to their nature as a light fighter, however, Duresses often fall into less reputable hands. In 2790, a pair of Duresses and a pair of Heretics abandoned a load of synthetic organs bound for an Anhur Orphanage to pirates. Finbhar Cratchett, the orophanage director, placed a bounty on their heads. Pirate clans also fly the craft - another even quartet of Duresses and Heretics, this time flown by Jincilla pilots, posed as mercenaries to lure the transport ship Lubanna into a trap. A Kindred Duress assisted in that groups attack on Messineo Couriers, Ltd.'s ex-mining base at Nav Point 225. None the less, other legitimate mercenaries do continue to fly Duresses - a pair escorted Davis & Co. Armaments and Supplies ships against Jincilla attacks in 2790. Duresses also see use in the private sector - a businessman who was hunted in that same year for having harassed Bernice Barlow flew the fighter as a personal transport.
The Duress entered service before 2785.
