MSNS Nike was a Victory-class frigate of the Manticore System Navy.
It was one of the four Solarian-built ships bought by the Manticore Colony Trust to serve as a rudimentary defense force for the Manticore Binary System, and was already in place when the colony ship Jason arrived in 1416 PD.
Numerous ships of the Royal Manticoran Navy carried the same name in the centuries to come. (JIR1)
