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]
