微风级是一种特殊设计的星际舰船，它完全依靠太阳风作为动力进行亚光速航行。超轻型的船帆让它能够在奔涌于宇宙空间中的光子流上乘风破浪，而它纤细的船体结构所集成的质量几乎可以忽略不计，并且其留下的可供感应器追踪的痕迹也微乎其微。 它是由印塔基苦行学者瓦塞思·蒂拉特设计成型，用以表达一种抽象的星舰设计概念，从一开始它就不是为了任何商业航行而设计的。最近，新出现的数以万计的虫洞以及前所未闻的冬眠者疆域让人们的目光重新聚集到微风级上——它轻盈的质量让它成为考察探险的理想选择。 尽管瓦塞思坚持认为微风级永远都不应该进入量产化阶段，不过在YC111年的年末，他还是授权了印塔基联合财团给每个注册了的克隆飞行员分配一艘微风级舰船。

The Zephyr is a unique starship design, relying almost entirely on solar winds for sublight propulsion. Super-light sails allow it to ride the torrents of photons streaming through space, and its barebones construction gives it a tiny sensor footprint and almost negligible mass. Originally conceived by the ascetic Intaki polymath Valsas en Dilat as a demonstration of minimalist starship design, it was never intended as a commercial venture. The recent discovery of the uncharted Sleeper Territories and their myriad wormholes has brought the Zephyr new attention - its mass makes it an ideal exploration vessel. Valsas remains adamant that the Zephyr never sees mass production, but at the close of YC111 he authorized the Intaki Syndicate to distribute a single hull to every registered capsuleer.
