Hacker frigates have crews of computer nerds who constantly work to improve their codes and use real-time knowledge of what vessel specifications they are facing to create a usable version of nanites that can be used to hack into and take over an enemy ship. The subverter nanites are nanorobots that, once beamed over to another ship, start to hack into the mainframe & motherboard, both physically and electronically. Generally ships hit by these have little or no defenses. Updated (ie. used later) versions of subverter nanite may have a superiority over previous versions trying to commandeer the same vessel. Because of the danger they pose to enemy fleets, hacker frigates are often one of the first to be overwhelmed.
