The Courbe is the primary workhorse of GMS mining operations. It is designed to provide its pilot with a comfortable work station for long shifts in zero gravity mining fields. Its mining lasers are capable of slicing into large asteroids and burning away extraneous rock. Also used as an escort for GMS convoys, the Courbe performs adequately in combat, but is intended mainly to delay pirates long enough for its convoy to escape rather than to overcome hostile opposition.

The Courbe is the primary workhorse of GMS mining operations. It is designed to provide its pilot with a comfortable work station for long shifts in zero gravity mining fields. Its mining lasers are capable of slicing into large asteroids and burning away extraneous rock. Also used as an escort for GMS convoys, the Courbe performs adequately in combat, but is intended mainly to delay pirates long enough for its convoy to escape rather than to overcome hostile opposition.

GMS ships are designed and built under contract with EFL shipyards, but they are also sold on the civilian market to small mining companies and entrepreneurial prospectors.
