Development Thread: N/A
Manufacturer: Seinar Fleet Systems(originally), Subach-Innes(refit)

Description: A single clerical error made the Beelzebub(known under Subach brands as the Beelzebul) noted in Imperial history as the "Beezlebub." The refit, while taking away most of the ground forces' room, augments the ship with far more firepower than before. As well, additional armor has been added to make the Beelzebul that much more durable of the ship, with a durability-per-meter ratio exceeding the Carrack, and almost matching that of the Corusca. However, is is slow when compared to other refitted ships, a side-effect of its originally being designed to be deployed after the space battle is over.

Approved pending Secondary Approval

I do not like approving these. We already have ships that fulfill their roles and better in every single faction. They feel like Factory clutter.

However, I can see nothing wrong with them. Approved, but I will be much more discerning the next time I see ships that are entirely unnecessary passing through here.
