The Swiftsure-class Covert Courier is a special variation on the ubiquitous Type S Scout/Courier. The IISS found a need for a small ship that could be used in a variety of covert or courier roles, such as simple recon, transport of valuable goods, or extended espionage missions. The usual crew is a two-sophont IISS Special Operations team, but many of these craft have been entrusted to the Detached Duty bureau for loan to permanent Detached Duty personnel.

The 007 Covert Speeder is specifically designed to compliment the IISS Swiftsure Covert Courier. This speeder allows one sophont of the Special Operations team to work independently of the ship on a planet's surface or in space. Two sophonts may use the speeder for an extended period of time, but this would require what most spacefarers call "hot bunking," where the bunk is used in alternating 8 hour shifts. While this reduces the comfort level, the requirements of covert action can make it useful.
