ADVANCED SYSTEMS

- Dedicated Carrier: The Vyitka was designed to carry an sizeable amount of starfighter squadrons within its bulbous hull, mainly to support the larger warships with a plentiful amount of starfighters in a protracted engagement. The hangar bay doors located on the front and sides of the ship remain closed when not at battle, but open to let loose the swarm.
- Lightly Armed: All of that hangar space removed the opportunity to outfit the Vyitka with high-class caliber weapon systems, though the vessel still possesses some turbolasers and point-defense cannons if pressed into direct conflict.
When reviewing what ships the Sith Empire had in its vast arsenal, there was one glaring omission -- A small, light carrier. Of course the Empire had a carrier Star Destroyer and a carrier Battlecruiser at that point, but all of them were well above one kilometer in length and were considered too important to relegate to the defense of their territory; instead being placed in their multitude of war fleets.
So something smaller was designed and put into production to remedy that want. Hence the creation of the Vyitka.
Reaching about five hundred and fifty meters in length, the vessel was more or less a hangar with some engines attached at the rear in practicality. It served no purpose other than to field around three starfighter squadrons into battle, and was routinely deployed in a fleet squadron rather than on its lonesome.
