Topic: War Fleet on a Budget (Read 482 times)

Calis · « **on:** June 21, 2013, 02:50:11 PM »

This is a series of warships created by Corsair_SG and myself for one of the factions in our AU, the ships range from 240k tons up to 1.4m tons, I will start with the 240k War Corvette and War Explorer.

The ships were conceived around a common hull design theory:

Type I - was centered on the 410k Hull by removing a center expansion ring you get the 240K hull or by adding a center expansion ring you get 580k

Type II - was centered on the 780K hull or by adding a center expansion ring you get 920k hull

Type III - was centered on the 1.1m hull or by adding a center expansion ring you get 1.4m hull

Designed by order of the Sovereign Designate Morgania Bishop for a low cost
capital ship that could be put into production as fast as possible and for the
lowest possible cost, the reason for the War Corvette was simple, while the
Raven Class of Battle Carriers was supburd warships they was also the most
expensive yet built in the known realms and due to their cost limited in
numbers, so in anticipation of a war that might be forseen or not, the
decision was made to have the new War Corvette constructed and placed into
reserve status at various strategic locations in Sovereign League systems.

lol, these bring back some memories, for a quick explanation, why the war series of ships are so cheap is for the simple fact, we used standard armor, no LF batterys along with no dropshiip points unless needed for a specialized mission role, think of the Liberty ships of WW II for the construction idea, we just simpley out produced the enemy factions, sure they had the fancy toys for their warships but even a LF equipped fleet, and at the most they was able to fund and build 100 warships to the 800 that we produced in less time and obviously cost.
