The UEES Peace was a 2601-model Nautilus-class minelaying ship in service with the United Empire of Earth Navy shortly before the outbreak of the Second Tevarin War. During Operation Blindside it became the first Nautilus to use the novel overhead rail mine deployment system in action. This had been installed in 2601-model craft, replacing the unreliable belts of previous ships of this class. This operation is noted for the heavy mining of the Tohil Asteroid Belt, leading to the accidental elimination of a notorious pirate crew, the Big Hats.[1]
