Strengths and Weaknesses
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]+[/SIZE] [SIZE=9pt]Pulsed Ion Engines provide unmatched speed & maneuverability (at this class) and allow for more power to be diverted to critical systems without incident[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]+ Hypermatter Annihilator core allows for extraordinary amounts of energy to be produced [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]+ Due to the lack of reinforced armor, the ship can reap the full benefits of the Pulse Ion Engines[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]+ The command deck is found in the middle of the ship, a distinct feature of a SDE made ship which adds a layer of defense for the captain and his men during battle[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]+ Its weaponry makes it highly dangerous to ships of the sub-capital classes as well as strongly defended against small clusters of missiles.
[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]-[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] Due to the lack of a reinforced hull, the ship is much weaker to kinetic attacks (I.E missile strikes/slugs) and laser weaponry[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]-[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] The pulsed Ion Engines are under a lot of mechanical stress during operation, making them a structural weak point[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]-[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] Hypermatter cores are extremely volatile and when damaged tend to vaporize the vessel within moments, often leading to loses with all hands[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]-[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] With the command deck being in the middle of the ship, the flight team must rely on cameras on the hull for visual identification. These camera can, in turn, be destroyed during battle[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]· [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]-[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] It’s lack of major capital guns makes it weak in combat against ships above the sub-capital classes[/SIZE]
Description
[SIZE=9pt]“Give me firepower, or give me your paychecks. You’re not hired to sit around and suck at your jobs”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]– Xander Corbal when hearing the first proposal of the Jaina’s Devotion-Class Frigate[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]The Jauna’s devotion was designed to be a solely an anti-starfighter platform, but Xander’s insistence saw the ship being equipped with minor capital weaponry to give it the ability to at least slightly damage larger craft or bombard planetary targets. This upgrade in weaponry, though small, was enough to force the design team to rethink the original design. Instead of a tank of craft, they would make a small and agile craft capable of keeping up with swarms of fighters and allow it to out maneuver larger craft (in the interest of its own survival).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]To get this extra speed and maneuverability, they stripped the original frame and rebuilt it using lightweight Desh-Terenthium compound. This lightweight alloy was traditionally used for sub-class vehicles and offered no real reinforcement. However, it would serve as a fine frame substitute to give the Jaina’s Devotion-Class a fighting edge over most of its opponents. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]This craft is now a moving box of steel and lightweight alloy, capable of maneuverers that would be impossible for other frigates. [/SIZE]
