The [[Imperial Flagship]] likely possessed an extremely fast version of this drive as [[Ludens Nimrod Kendrick Cord Longstaff XLI|Porridge]] stated that it could "[[warp jump]]" into orbit within seconds of detecting his identification. Indeed, the Imperial Flagship arrived at [[Hedgewick's World of Wonders]] and [[transmat]]ted the survivors of [[Battle of Hedgewick's World of Wonders|the battle]] aboard in a matter of ten or so seconds.
