ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Heavy Universal Launchers:
Keros' Kad is equipped with a pair of Heavy Universal launchers to replace its Heavy Proton Torpedo launchers. While the launcher can fire Heavy Proton Torpedoes (22), and these remain the vessels primary weapons, they allow for the Kad to take a wide variety or ordnance. These weapons include Ion Missiles (6), Anti-Fighter Cluster Missiles (6), Advanced Heavy Proton Torpedoes (4), and Baradium Missiles (2). The Baradium Missiles are considered to be last resort weapons, requiring confirmation to fire, and the targeting computer of the cruiser prevent these missiles from targeting a planet's surface. This launch system also gives the Keros' Kad more versatility than the original MC30c.

Mon Calamari Shields:
While the Keros' Kad has been retrofitted, she retains one of the most powerful parts of a Mon Calamari warship. The shields. The shield generator is buried within the vessels superstructure, making it hard to destroy. This also allows the cruiser's shields to recharge and keep its lightly armored hull safe from fire.

Strengths:

• Heavy Universal Launchers keep the vessels "capital ship killer" status while allowing for a variety of munitions to be launched.
• Fast and maneuverable vessel for its size.
• Strong shielding.

Weaknesses:

• Weak armor.
• Automated systems are vulnerable to Ion weapons.
• Despite refits, the Kad is still an old vessel, meaning that hits on the hull can be worse than a modern variant of the MC30c.

Description: The Keros' Kad started life as a standard MC30c until she was abandoned for unknown reasons. The vessel was later found by the Mandalorian Clan Gred, and the relatively small clan took control of the by then outdated warship. She was brought to MandalMotors and refitted with modern systems and weapons, though most were skeptical about the vessel.

Since her construction, the cruiser has only run anti-piracy operations to test her abilities. Now though, the clan is ready to bring this craft into battle.
