The Mantero-Class missile frigate is a vessel designed by Prefsbelt Command to fulfill contracts to Prince Lucien Dooku of Nirauan. The Mantero-Class was designed as a mid scale vessel, designed to fulfill the role of a heavily armed frigate within the ranks of heavily armed and fast New Imperial vessels. The vessel is packed with missile batteries, designed around coordinating, and then releasing devastating barrages of high powered ordinance in such volley sizes as to try to overwhelm ordinary point defence systems.
The vessel is fitted with fire control systems allowing for coordinated barrages of missiles to increase fire effectiveness. There is also a multilayered shield system, increasing the defences, as well as a compositely built hull. The vessels speed also presents advantage, with the Mantero capable of speeding into the heart of enemy formations, or alternatively pursuing enemies with great capability.
However, the Mantero is hardly a perfect vessel. The reliance on missile based ordinance also opens up a weakness, that being a superior point defence system could potentially nullify its primary source of ordinance. Along with that, the Mantero carries no fighter support, making it vulnerable to concerted attacks by starfighters.
