- Dedicated Well Deck
- Dedicated Launch Deck
- Dedicated Landing Deck
- DEDICATED BUT SEPARATE LAUNCH AND LANDING DECKS - While the fighters onboard are VTOL capable, the catapult systems allow for quick launches and landings, especially necessary in battlefield situations.
- I SAW THAT A MILE AWAY! - The long-range detection system keeps enemies from getting the drop on The Liberation class much like The Ethereal class but with more defensive capabilities.
- WE GOT YOU BOY! - The long-range weapons, combined with the long-range detection make this a difficult ship to attack without heavy bomber support.
- ANNUNAKI - Like the original Ethereal Class, "The Annunaki", has special docking clamps and ports that can allow it to dock on the ventral section of the carrier (The Well Deck) . Only this design allows for a jump to hyperspace. Omega Squad doesn't use it much anymore, but the ship is there if they do.
- EXPOSED BOW LAUNCH PORTS - There are more than a few launch ports on the carrier, but the main launch bays are located on the bow and a well-placed attack can incapacitate them. If there were "sniper ships" they would have a field day.
- HEAVY CARRIER... NOT CRUISER - While "The Liberation" class can conduct ship-to-ship combat, "The Ethereal" class is a stronger class to conduct these operations. The Welkin class is even more capable, this is not the primary focus of the vessel, and it could use some help in a fight.
- SOOOO MANY FIGHTERS - The problem with carrying so many fighters is that if you are launching an assault it takes a long time to launch them. Like it or not, the ship is extremely vulnerable during this time.
Out of some strange design in his head, Admiral Liram Angellus believes that a carrier should be a "floating city" which means that one should be able to conduct multiple and multiply varied types of operations simultaneously. All the while operating for months, even years at a time without making port. "The MK II Ethereal Class" is ridiculously large but provides this role to a tee. The dedicated command levels offer office space as well as training, education, and planning rooms without the prying ears of the enlisted. There are not simply "holding cells" but a veritable "jail". Support vessels and troop carriers no longer share catapult pressers but their own specific "drop" arms, releasing the ship tethered to a long "arm" often into a planet's atmosphere, too, or wherever. The Marines have their own well-decks often allowing for and encouraging mass landing operations. There is little that this ship cannot do. She has her flaws, but no one is perfect.
