The Caravel-class was designed to fill a requirement for a light scouting cruiser for the Imperial Navy. Recon lines are sent into the dark places of a system to see what they can find. So enemy ships often try to lie quietly in the sensor penumbra of an asteroid or similar body in order to avoid detection. Enemy ships can no longer just jump out of trouble the odds that the fleet will follow are getting better. This technology allows the Imperial Navy to actually project a ship's destination once it jumps to hyperspace with greater accuracy than the old method. Recon lines are more common now as the Empire equips more of its large capital ships with improved hyperwave signal interceptors (HSIs) capable of detecting flux shift.
Reconnaissance ships are usually light cruisers modified for even greater sublight speed, trading in about half of their laser cannon for a full complement of sensors with greater range and sensitivity than the Imperial average.
