Notes: The Bounty was the United Nations attempt to build an FLT ship to follow on the successful DY series sleeper ships. An experimental Alcubierre and Hasslein drives provided superluminal and subluminal speeds, respectively. In the event of either drive failing, a conventional Capisan/Westinghouse SJ-38 provided subluminal and landing speeds.

The ship, commanded by COL C.O. Marx of the American Air Force, embarked with a multinational crew on what was to be a 10 year, 3 star system testbed exploration mission with surveys of Alpha Centauri, including Proxima Centauri, Groombridge 34, and Ross 248 in May, 2010CE. The ship was declared lost by mission controllers when signals from the ship's powerful AN/AE-32 transceiver array were no longer being received after the recorded timestamp of 20151031. The ship was declared “Missing, Presumed Destroyed” as of that date.
