DESCRIPTION:
The Shield Class Star Defender is made to be the singular Flagship of the Corporate Protectorate. A great amount of wealth and brilliant minds went into the idea. With their territory being small, and their assets at the time limited the Protectorate knew they couldn't field a super large fleet.
Instead they opted for the quality of ship v.s. Quantity. They sought to strike a balance between utility and advanced systems. Thus the Shield Class was born.
Boasting primarily missiles as offense, and Artemis PDC's as its defense it is a versatile ship. The bridge and CIC is internal to the vessel.
The vessel has a Supercomputer which is linked via network to a series of terminals, allowing the Commander and XO to operate it by voice command, rather than rely on heavy crewing. As a result the need for crew was drastically cut, and a commander can operate a skeleton crew and still command the ship.
The network does however leave it open to Slicer's and Ion attack.
The Shield Class Star Defender is considered the heaviest hitting vessel in the arsenal of the Protectorate.
