A WarShip from my AU designed by Corsair_SG it has sat for ages because I may have forgotten about it

So here it is my AU's take on the original Jade Falcon vessel.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Overview
	The Peregrine Corvette was the first WarShip designed and built
by Clan Jade Falcon.  In keeping with the new Clan doctrine of unit's divided
by five the Jade Falcons planned to build fifteen such vessels.

Capabilities
	With a primarily capital weapons armament the Perigrine is
designed to engage WarShips and DropShips.  This firepower is primarily
made up of six Class 10 Naval Autocannons and six class-45 Naval Lasers.
While the vessel's anti-fighter weapons are made up of twelve Barracuda 
Capital Missile Launchers and thirty-two Extended Range Large Lasers
while the vessel has twenty-four Anti-Missile systems for missile defence
setting it apart from most Star League designs.
	The Peregrine's firepower was supplemented by ten aerospace
fighters and a single DropShip attached to a collar.  Fifty conventional
marines supplement the vessel's internal defence although the Clan's rarely
fill these quarters with marines instead using these quarters as passenger
space.
	Capable of a maximum thrust of 3G the one hundred and eighty
thousand ton WarShip is able to outpace most large vessels.  Using double
heat sinks and a lithium fusion battery the vesse is able to keep up with the
majority of vessels.

Deployment
	Only five Peregrines were built the first two to engage in combat
were destroyed by Clan Snow Raven in the Lum system.  Both vessels were 
destroyed in battle following this poor showing the Jade Falcons decided to 
stop production after the initial batch of vessels were completed.  One vessel
was destroyed a year after it was built the remaining two were relegated to
the Jade Falcon mothball fleet in the Ironhold system.
	Before the Jade Falcons abandoned the Homeworlds in 3088
they took with them the last two vessels of the class the Peregrine and Falcon
these vessels went onto fight in the Lyran Commonwealth in 3093.

It looks to be a decent ship. What did it go up against in Lum to be owned so badly? An Aegis?

A fact lost to time

I'd guess given the Clan fleets before Clan tech an Aegis as you suggest or a Black Lion. Considering Lum was an important world it could even have been something bigger or one of the original Riga II-class Carriers.

This poor showing and the introduction of Clan technology cut it off at its knees before it could get going, surprising the Jade Falcons never built more then again there's always time. In this AU the Jade Falcons took the last two to the Inner Sphere and have a shipyard...
