- SMALL BUT TOUGH - This Corvette looks like it should not be able to take the pounding that it can. The shielding, the ablative armor, the point defense. She's a tough little ship.
- STEALTHIER THAN SHE SHOULD BE - When the stealth systems are engaged, try and find her.
- MULTI-PURPOSE - The Annunaki was meant to be an escort ship, but the stealth enhancements and the droidbrains allow for more varied operations and enable her to be the base of operations for Omega Squad.
- CATAPULT SYSTEM - Though "The Annunaki" doesn't have a lot of room, but has a "catapult" system that launches or "drops" the ships in a reverse direction. This allows them to fly straight in without issue.
- DOCKS UNDER CARRIERS - The ship is designed with airlocks and docking clamps that allow her to dock to the Ventral side of the Heavy Carriers "Ethereal", "Silver City" and "Celestial City".
- STILL A TIGHT FIT - Yes, The new Annunaki only holds one "Pegasus" in comparison to her previous model holding two, but a Ronto, a team of operators, a crew, and cargo. That doesn't mean it is the roomiest. No, it is not "Elbows to A-holes" but when the ship is loaded, it is loaded.
- OH CRAP, THEY FOUND US! - Yes, this ship has a SLAM, and a HIMS system, and stealth systems. Those systems have to be engaged and cannot overlay each other. She can be invisible, or fast, not both.
- CAN PACK A PUNCH... BUT - The main cannons only fire forward, and the Turrets can only fire in certain arcs. If you're going to attack, hit her from behind even with the turbolasers.
- CATAPULT SYSTEM - The ship is designed so that the "Pegasus" Transports can launch in reverse from the rear (much like a car pulling off of a carrier) so that they can fly into the bay in the same direction. While this can be an asset for landing, it is a (censored) for launches and limits launches to space operations (until more practice comes into play).
- IT JUST DOCKS THERE? - Okay, it docks to a carrier, what else does it do, other than add weight? It is now a target at this point.
- NOT LONG RANGE CAPABLE - Yes, there is a hyperdrive, but it is little more than two jump capable before refueling/recharging and those cannot perform long jumps because the onboard supplies are not capable of "long term" without heavy rationing.
Tired of having his team's hands proverbially tied, Aien began using every authorization he could give, use every advantage that his position, and can muster, and every connection he could call in to begin untying them. The Ronto, the armor, The FIST, this is in a long line. The "Annunaki" is meant to be an overall operating platform, and the mobile base of operations of Omega Squad when on long operations. The ship is capable of housing and providing a place for the team, and her crew with repair and reload facilities as well as consumables. There is also the capability of providing escort capabilities if necessary. It was a success but was "Too much", and eventually went down on a mission.
The new model is faster, more maneuverable, and more capable in ship-to-ship combat if proven necessary. She has her flaws but was designed to pick up a "Pegasus" and get to a carrier, or at least a nearby station. She could have been set up to last longer out in the field, but there is really no need. The new model was meant to drop into a fight, drop the team and get out, or conversely, drop in, pick them up and get them out.
