Overseers were a sturdy class of survey vessels built for undetected observation. The KRK-9009 MK I series was built specifically to observe pre-contact species on class H, M, O, and P planets. During the Sheromi contact with Asurians, many motherships still held MK IV versions of the ships despite their decommissioning. The Asurians now fly a handful of these saucers for the purpose of pirating and battle.

The Overseer class is infamous for having started the pop-culture fad of 'flying saucers' on Earth. Sheromi used the MK IV saucers for observing humans and consequently left an imprint of their ships in human culture. A handful of younger cultures also share the same cultural phenomenon for the same reasons.
