Cerberus Defense Developments is not yet a company but I have an RP in the works to make it so, but in the interest in forming the CSA fleet I wanted to post this early
Intent: To provide an Assault Cruiser for the CSA
Hero Unit: no
Manufacturer: Cerberus Defense Developments:
Model: Heavy Assault Cruiser
Affiliation: CSA
Modularity: No
Production: Minor
Material: Durasteel
Description: A hard hitting assault cruiser designed by engineers at CDD that came from both Murr-Sonn munitions for advanced armor platting techniques and Incom for adaptable and solid star ship design. It posses speed, fire power and can be quickly repaired at any of the CSA’s shipyards with a unique “snap on, snap off” armor platting system. The downfall of this speedy system of repair is that the sheets of armor can easily be detached with less than concentrated fire if it’s shields are brought down, leaving its interior structure open for massive damage. This problem has yet to be adequately fixed since most of the ships available energy is used for quick movements and its weaponry, leaving its shields at the normal strength of any high-class assault cruiser which is unacceptable for its “snap on, snap off” design of armor. However, a quick design change has put a unique fin design on the craft. These fins are the masts for energy buffing fields, under the normal shields, that work to absorb some of the shock of impacts to decrease stress on the structure of plates and decrease the chance of detachment from impact.
The bow of the ship is designed to give the cruiser a high volume of firepower that poses a small target for enemy fire. The aft section gets progressively wider to accommodate crew quarters and power generators and large engines for movement. The bridge is uniquely placed at the bottom most section at the bow of the ship. Unlike most ships almost all of the armament is above the bridge and is mostly made of a durable space grade glass with only small sections made of Durasteel where the consoles and controls are located. There is a “secondary bridge” in the middle of the ship for emergency weapons and hyperspace jump controls in case the main bridge is destroyed.
