The Pathfinder is a class of Earthfleet long range scout ships that are both a decedent of the Sergenious class, using the LongBow modifications as a template, as well as a generational predecessor of the Raven class shipkiller, of which adopted some of the Pathfinders advanced designs and operational doctrines that were learned and developed over the high storied operational career of the Pathfinder class. Being such an incredibly successful scout ship design (a welcome relief after the miserable failure of both the Pegasus and Skipjack class starships), the Pathfinder class served Earthfleet (and the rest of the galaxy indirectly) through the remaining years of both the Sergenious and Samurai class Shipkillers, and even through most of the careers of the Raven and Wolfpack class shipkillers, only finally being retired upon the creation of a newer, purpose built class of scout ships that surpassed the Pathfinder in every measure.
Even then the Pathfinders, despite being technologically obsolete at the time, were kept back as training ships for, at least, another fifty years before finally being retired due to their age. And, in that fifty extra years of service, they helped train up the growing Sol Republic as Earthfleet, the Society, and the newly christened United Earth joined together and began expanding out into space.
