S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier No. 64

S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier No. 64

Control: Ty
Speed: Gd
Body: Ex
Protection: Ex

On-Board Systems:
-Brig: The Helicarrier has the means of detaining people that need to be held captive, even the Hulk. Those held within the brig of the Helicarrier must deal with Am material glass. Even in the air, these brigs can be dropped.
-Computer Room: the fire control center on the Helicarrier has access to a large variety of computer networks offered by the Pentagon, information from which is filtered into its main computer room. The Helicarrier's computers are capable of the standard set of features.
-Communications Room: the Helicarrier also benefits from a powerful communications system, that can talk with all of its aircraft in the field or other ships. Functioning with an almost global range, the Helicarrier has Gd radio communications (2,500 mile range).
-Crew's Quarters: Requiring over a hundred highly trained soldiers to operate, the Helicarrier must naturally house these dedicated S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives in relative comfort. There are enough cabins to house each operative, in addition to larger quarters for its officers.
-Hangar: The principal function of the Helicarrier being air force deployment, it can store several Quinjets below deck, in addition to those that are normally 'parked' on the surface of the ship. It can hold a total of 64 aircraft on the ship at any given time.
-Infirmary: This room holds all the gear necessary to treat injuries that may befall the crew of the Helicarrier in the line of duty, from those inflicted in combat to naturally occurring ailments. Can act as a simple doctor's office or an emergency room, as needed.
-Mess Hall: designed to effectively serve meals to the rather large crew of operatives necessary to operate the Helicarrier, this compartment can store vast amounts of food and prepare a whole lot at any given time, along with the room to serve it (combination kitchen/dining room).
-Radar Network: The Helicarrier is equipped with a comprehensive radar net, along with facial recognition. These provide the Helicarrier Am threat detection
-Workshop: the Helicarrier has the tools and parts necessary to maintain its Quinjets
-Retro-Reflective Panels: S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarriers have retro-reflective panels lining their hulls, making them Am invisible to normal human vision below a certain elevation. They also possess radar cloaking capabilities, making them difficult to detect by other means with Am ability.
-VTOL: The Helicarrier is able to take off or land vertically
-Confinement Cell: Originally designed to hold the Hulk, the cell could be jettisoned the aircraft with a free fall of 30,000 feet.

The Helicarrier is an advanced aerial vehicle with a design and function closely resembling that of a modern aircraft carrier. Specifically, the Helicarrier is designed to be capable of sustained, independently-powered flight, via four, massive engines that provide the lift needed to keep it in the air. S.H.I.E.L.D. relied on Helicarriers as highly strategic mobile bases from which they could perform a number of effective reconnaissance, stealth deployment, or direct strike operations.
