  Production: Limited
  
• Material:
  Interior
  Iron floor, walls, & ceiling

• Height: 650 meters
• Armament: Low
  Superheavy/Special Weapons
  5 superheavy dual turbolasers (focused on the front of the carrier)

[*]Heavy Weapons

• 50 dual heavy turbolasers (spread evenly)
• 50 heavy anti-capital missile tubes (spread evenly)

[*]Anti-Capital Weapons

• 50 dual turbolasers (spread evenly)
• 50 anti-capital missile tubes (spread evenly)
• 50 heavy ion cannons (spread evenly)
• 20 fletchette missile tubes (spread evenly)

[*]Defenses: Average

• Basic Armor/Shielding
  Battleship-grade energy shielding
• Battleship-grade molecular shielding
• OR-SAP, Variant IIIhttp://starwarsrp.net/topic/137896-or-sap/http://starwarsrp.net/topic/137896-or-sap/

[*]Ion/EMP Defenses

[*]Hyperdrive Class: 1

• Backup Hyperdrive: 10

STANDARD FEATURES

• Crew Quarters
• Officer Quarters
• Mess Hall(s)
• Medical Rooms
• Command Bridge
• Starfighter Bridge (Similar to that of a Venator-class Star Destroyer, controls starfighter and escort actions)
• Holding Cells
• Hangar Bays (1-20)

ADVANCED SYSTEMS

• Meditation chambers
• Mission Function Modules
• Long-range quantum radar
• Cybernetic chambers
• HIMS Arrays

Strengths:

• Supercarrier - A single Valiant-class supercarrier can hold hundreds, if not thousands of starfighters in its vast expanses of hangars.
• Queen Bee - The sophisticated comms system of a Valiant-class supercarrier allows it to very easily communicate with the starfighters under its service and even serve as a command ship for small to medium sized fleets.
• Defense Boost - With Mon Calamari-made heavy capital shielding, Valiant supercarriers can handle a barrage for a short period of time.

Weaknesses:

• Metal Tube - Starfighters are the Valiant supercarrier's primary weapon, and greatest defense. By itself, it is a much weaker vessel, with its armaments spread apart great distances. While its shielding may be well-designed, once it breaks, the carrier's armor is much weaker. Additionally, the hollow space inside the supercarrier isn't great for the ship's integrity, and any outer plating and framework caving into the carrier can cause serious, lasting damage.
• Sitting Duck - Due to a majority of the interior space in a Valiant-class supercarrier being filled with hangars, the ship's engines are far from powerful. While it can move across space at a reasonable speed, it is expected for even other battlecruisers to outpace the carrier.
• Tall Head - The large command bridge of a Valiant-class supercarrier is a blessing and a curse. It is easily visible protruding from the top of the ship, and enemies can quickly concentrate on it with little punishment.

Description: The Valiant-class supercarrier is the first vessel produced by ORME over two kilometers in length since Pickle Rick.

Designed to fill in the role of a medium supercarrier, a Valiant-class supercarrier can hold a whopping thirty-two squadrons in its vast hangars. Each of the twenty hangars lining the edges of the supercarrier are equally sized, and are each large enough to fit a frigate inside.

Additionally, a large command bridge supports a highly advanced communications system coordinating not only the carrier's functions, but also those of its starfighters. Due to dedicated areas of the command bridge being reserved for each portion, it is hard to interfere or jam either system.

As a side effect of strength-based Mon Calamari engineering, Valiant supercarriers are outfitted with molecular and energy shielding powerful for a carrier.
