Introducing: The Ephebian Defence Force's Prototype Destroyer:
The DD-300a Vigilant II.
Weighing in at just over 1,200 tons, the DD-300a is the first line of defense for the Ephebian cluster against pirates or other hostile forces. Armed with twin heavy missile batteries as well as a heavy beam weapon, this ship is more than a match for many threats, while her good mobility permit her to escape many more powerful foes.
One of the best features of the DD-300a are the quad point defense turrets, which in testing provided nearly 90% protection against missiles from most angles. These dual auto-cannon turrets can also serve as antipersonnel weapons when operated in remote mode.
The primary draw of this ship is of course her versatility. Able to land on planetary surfaces, carry moderate volumes of cargo, transport prisoners, and more quickly and easily than ever before dock with other ships in mid space, the DD-300a boasts every modern amenity and several new features not available on civilian crafts.
The Ephebian Navy is renown for the level of care taken for both enlisted crew and officers, and this ship is no exception. Spacious living accommodations for the 12 man crew means that every sailor gets his own bunk, and there is a small recreation area for off-duty time.
Still, every good sailor mainly lives at his post, and here too the needs of the crew are attended to.
So join today! Your planet needs you. Your sector needs you. You need you to be all that you should become in the Navy!
Notes:
This is the first in a RP-centered rebuilding of old designs from my past with which I was happy. Functionally, this ship is acceptable with an 11k power generator, Nearly 120k shields, and over 430k armor HP with nearly full armor coverage and good point defense. The weapons are not the best, but they do not overtax the reactor. There are various reactor modules installed, which provide reasonable functionality in the hands of a human or AI pilot.
RP Ameneties include:
Logic driven docking arm with force fields and SMD docking ring.
Retractable cargo hatch
door-based landing gear (there was no room for retractable, sorry)
"long range sensor" light
"Engine cutoff" control
transporter
Medical systems
10 rooms for RP and a crew of 12
