The Tau Empire's long and protracted war with the Orks in their Second Sphere of Expansion proved early on that the numerous but relatively fragile merchantmen that were the life-blood of the rapidly expanding Tau Empire were woefully inadequate. Continuing raids decimated the fleets of these small ships, leading to the development of a much larger class of heavily armed transport in the form of the Il'Fannor.

The Tau Empire thrives on the trade between its Septs, and transports are the workhorses of the trade routes.
