Solar class Battleship



The Solar-class Battleship is a heavy combat starship built and used by the Union of Everett.

Specs
The Solar-class is half a mile in length at almost 2,600 feet long and 500 feet wide. Powered by a fusion generator that powers four engines with hyperdrive, wormhole generation ability and anti-gravity, the ship can reach a maximum of nine times the speed of light in hyperdrive faster-than-light travel and over 700 billion miles per hour in wormhole travel. The Solar-class has a standard crew capacity of 750 with room to carry up to 7,500 crew which can include ground troops for deployment or bays for fighters or other air and spacecraft. The vessel possesses medical, dental and veterinary clinics and bays for trauma, surgery and other patients.

Armament
Being a battleship space vessel, the Solar-class is the most heavily armed vessel in the Union of Everett Space Forces as well as one of the most defended. Its primary armament includes a series of powerful retractable ion plasma cannons which are provided their own secondary fusion generator engine. Secondary weapons include a series of missile launching modules for plasma torpedos, GFW missiles and weapons of mass destruction missiles. The Solar-class carries an automatic chain missile firing system, similar to the Nebula-class Destroyer, capable of firing high speed missiles in rapid fire at enemy vessels. Missiles can include weapons of mass destruction such as low, standard, mid and high grade fusion warheads. A series of smaller plasma and ion turrets are located throughout the craft to not only defend from fighter and bomber attacks but for additional fire power against enemy vessels or target. The Solar-class is also armed with a single weapon of mass destruction, located on the center underside of the vessel, which utilizes the fusion generator engine power from both fusion generators located in the ship. The central attack system can be used to fire a PDS style beam down onto a target, seconds later firing the primary weapon, which can be used against space facilities or to orbitally bombard ground targets on the surface of a planet including military bases and cities if necessary. The beam weapon has been compared to the 1996 movie Independence Day. The Solar-class is also armed with a small bay for fighters and deployment ships with a capacity for up to ten SF22A Raptor, SF09 Predator or EF-100 fighters and two EC-200 transport saucers.
