The Loggerhead repair vessel is a new vessel being used as a testing platform for several pieces of technology. Starchaser Enterprises has always been focused on exploration and starship maintenance. And the Loggerhead is the peak of this goal. Designed around a massive power plant, the ship is built to provide a mobile shield generator to provide cover for distressed vessels.
Once a ship is under the safe protection of the shield generator, the Loggerhead begins its main process of “painting” the hull with the duracrete/durasteel “splatter” through a very brutalist launcher. This process is enough to reinforce the hull for safe travel through hyperspace and may provide some use in combat scenarios, however the technology is rough and designed for life safety over combat efficiency.
An internal repair yard can quickly 3D print necessary components for more high tech equipment but is not as efficient as a repair yard.
Small droid ships, on par with Vulture Droids can be launched from the Loggerhead to provide more fine targeting of repairs.
If in a combat scenario, the Loggerhead has advanced electronics warfare equipment to jam targeting computers while raining disabling ion cannon shots on opponents.
This ship is the definition of combat medic.
