These light capital ships are the mainstay of Fleet reconnaissance and small Rapid Response Task Forces. Although too light to cause great harm to heavier capital ships on a 1:1 basis, they are more than adequate to serve in screening, patrol, and perimeter defense duties.
FRIGATES
Falconer-class Fighter Carrier Frigate |
||
Length: 220m | Shield Power: 300M/sec | 10 [573K] heavy blazers 50 medium blazers 10 icosamissile pods |
Crew: 200 | Turn Radius: 100°/sec | |
Troops: 1 Platoon | Hull Strength: 1.5m, 200M/sec | |
Fighters: 72 | Construction Code: FCF |
The Falconer-class fighter carrier frigate is designed to provide fire support for light RRTFs. A mediocre combatant, its weapons are geared primarily towards anti-fighter defense. Despite its inherent drawbacks, the wing of fighters deployed by the Falconer can be a highly effective fighting force.
Victor-class Marine Frigate |
||
Length: 200m | Shield Power: 500M/sec | 2 [2.3M] megablazers 10 [573K] heavy blazers 30 medium blazers 2 singuarity torp launchers 10 icosamissile pods |
Crew: 200 | Turn Radius: 180°/sec | |
Troops: 1 RCT | Hull Strength: 2.0m, 400M/sec | |
Fighters: 6 | Construction Code: MFG |
The Victor-class is a successful marine transport and light combat vessel. Dubbed the "sardine can" due to its relatively spartan accomodations, the Victor nevertheless has the ability to transport a full regiment to wherever it needs to be safely and quickly.
Pugilist-class Combat Frigate |
||
Length: 160m | Shield Power: 400M/sec | 4 [50.2] megablazers 15 [573K] heavy blazers 20 medium blazers 4 singularity torpedo launchers 4 icosamissile pods |
Crew: 160 | Turn Radius: 180°/sec | |
Troops: 1 Platoon | Hull Strength: 1.7m, 250M/sec | |
Fighters: support | Construction Code: CFG |
The Pugilist-class is the premier choice for attendant vessels in heavy or medium combat squadrons. Able to support heavier vessels with its maneuverability and firepower, the Pugilist is a top-rate light capital ship.
Fusilier-class Fire Support Frigate |
||
Length: 150m | Shield Power: 200M/sec | 5 [2.3M] megablazers 20 medium blazers 44 singularity torpedo launchers 6 icosamissile pods 2 FAUST cruise missile tubes 20 light cruise missile tubes |
Crew: 320 | Turn Radius: 100°/sec | |
Troops: security | Hull Strength: 1m, 100M/sec | |
Fighters: support | Construction Code: FSF |
The Fusilier-class can change the tide of battle from afar with its massive broadsides of megablazers, singularity torpedoes, and cruise missiles but is too fragile to take place in the middle of fleet actions.
DESTROYERS
Pobyeda-class Combat Destroyer |
||
Length: 120m | Shield Power: 400M/sec | 2 [10.3M] megablazers 3 [300K] heavy blazers 22 medium blazers 8 missile tubes 3 singularity torpedo launchers |
Crew: 100 | Turn Radius: 150°/sec | |
Troops: 2 Squads | Hull Strength: 1.5m, 200M/sec | |
Fighters: support | Construction Code: CDT |
The Pobyeda-class combat destroyer is an ancient hull hailing from the Panasian Communist Bloc space navy of the Terran pre-2100 period, even before the Terran Dominion was founded. Its sturdy modular hull was conducive to upgrades and so has kept it alive through nearly a millenium of service. It is a powerful light vessel.
Democracy-class Destroyer Escort Carrier |
||
Length: 120m | Shield Power: 100M/sec | 2 [300K] heavy blazers 12 medium blazers |
Crew: 75 | Turn Radius: 150°/sec | |
Troops: security | Hull Strength: .5m, 50M/sec | |
Fighters: 36 | Construction Code: DEC |
The Democracy-class carrier is a contemperary of the Pobyeda class and serves in most planetary defense fleets and reconnaissance task forces.
Oblique-class Scout Destroyer |
||
Length: 100m | Shield Power: 200M/sec | 4 [300K] heavy blazers 4 medium blazers 6 singularity torpedo launchers |
Crew: 50 | Turn Radius: 180°/sec | |
Troops: security | Hull Strength: 1m, 100M/sec | |
Fighters: support | Construction Code: SCD |
The Oblique-class is the WZ Navy's stand-alone scout vessel. Equipped with classified stealth and sensor equipment, the Oblique can easily infiltrate enemy space on information gathering missions. Its sensors can get detailed scans of objects and worlds 200 light years away through a novel and highly classified approach.
INTERCEPTORS
Wildcat-class Interceptor |
||
Length: 60m | Shield Power: 500M/sec | 2 [100.0M] megablazers 4 [700K] heavy blazers 8 medium blazers 3 singularity torpedo launchers |
Crew: 5 | Turn Radius: 270°/sec | |
Troops: security | Hull Strength: 1.5m, 200M/sec | |
Fighters: support | Construction Code: INT |
The Wildcat-class interceptor is a marvel of modern small-craft engineering. Using the same inverse-proportion theory as the Ares-class superbattleship, the Wildcat mounts capital-ship class systems in a smaller frame, inventing a very effective patrol, interception, and interdiction vessel. Equipped with the latest in stealth and electronic warfare technologies, Wildcats are a match for any heavy cruiser anywhere.
