Strengths:
//Bow|Stern Defenses: The gunship is adept at fighting an adversary vertical to the ship's structure
//Durable Shield System: The ship transfers most of its power to the shield systems
//Fast Speed: The ship has above average engines
Weaknesses:
\\No Broadsides: Because of the vertical weapons placement, if a ship attacked from the port or starboard, the ship will not perform well
\\Weak Life Support: The life support systems, due to an unfixable flaw in the design, are prone to vulnerability during conflicts. If an attack on the ship was centered near the stern, the life supports would surely be destroyed. If an ion attack commenced, it would fry the primary life support as well. Leaving only the weakened second DLSS, and the much weaker backup
Description: The Director Class Gunship is mainly an escort craft. It can be used as a patrol ship, and planetary defense corvette. It's crew capacity is 46 personnel with a 19 passenger count.
