The Concordia-class Supercruiser was the largest battleship class in the fleet of the Terran Confederation.
History[]
The class was originally developed during the Pilgrim War and saw action in the following Terran-Kilrathi War. Its fleet command function makes it a focus for ship tenders and resupply operations.[1]
A Concordia-class ship travels always in company with at least 2 destroyers and a cruiser of larger battleship, and frequently with transports.[1]
The Confederation-class carrier appears to be a special variant of the Concordia-class Supercruiser and is larger, and contains more weapons and crew than the standard Concordia-class ships.
Specifications[]
The Supercruiser's main offensive asset is its 50 torpedo tubes against other ships or planetary munitions and strategic weapons. It is supplemented by point-defense missiles against fighters and primary antimatter guns. It also contains a small fighter deck for medium fighters or fighter/bombers.[1]
In its capacity of a command class of capital ships, it is equipped with enhanced long-range comunications and sensor packages and contains a hospital facility, brig and quarters for guests/passengers.[1]
It takes 700 officers and crew plus a space for 350 command support and fleet operations and medical personnel.[1]
