By far the fastest of the Z-Series fleet, the Z-15 Scouts speed through the various sectors, the rift engines installed within their small frames allowing them instantaneous travel through much of their territories, and their telecommunication systems allowing them to relay their intelligence back to the numerous Spacepads in fractions of a second. Though reconnaissance had been the Scout's main task in the Z-Series armada, each of them had been equipped, as a proactive measure, with both offensive and defensive capabilities.
