Also called the Orca gunship, the Kass'l is a much more nimble vessel compared to the Kor'vattra's other mainline escort, the Kir'qath. Equipped with both Railguns and Ion Cannons its only pitfall is that it lacks its own Gravitic Drive, the Tau being unable to manufacture them on such a compact scale. Instead, they are transported via the Gravitic Hooks of larger vessels.1
