Yes, the code of Z in the Qualifier position does indicate that the BZ-15 is an experimental design. From MT 0218 Fighting Ships page 5 right column "Battle Tender: A battle tender is a ship designed to carry battle-riders into battle."

A heavy forehead slap can be heard.

From MT 0218 page 10:

Sixth paragraph: "Finally, the BZ=15 takes the battle rider system one step further and places a battle rider on a battleship for combat support deployment."

Thank you for the correction and I've made the correction in my primary code table.

At least this time my accuracy improved to seventy-five percent.
