Developed in coordination with the Shau'ghunate Guard's emphasis towards nonlethal force and increased casualty retention, the Search And Rescue Designation Alpha, more commonly known as the SAR-Alpha for short, is a dedicated search and rescue vessel optimized for spaceborne operations. Its performance is on par with the Kiai'ta-class Space Superiority Fighter for quick response capability.
