Chiss Beacon Ships were used by the Chiss in a support role and were charged with providing hyperspace coordinates to Nssis-class Clawcraft as well as other ships within the Chiss fleet that lacked navigational computers. Depending on the length of a journey, these ships were often strung along travel routes where they coordinated smaller ships as well as ensured that they were not lost in their travels.

Its complement of 36 fighters usually consisted of a mix of Advanced Clawcraft, Nssis-class Clawcraft, Chiss Heavy Fighters, and Chiss Recon Fighters.
