    Greetings constituents, rival ship-makers and potential buyers. After the release of several ships to limited markets and some unrelated bribes, today, Stenholt Fleet Solutions announces it will go public with its offerings, allowing limited investment in it's entire line of spacefaring vessels. With various factions and navies slowly becoming privy to it's line of ships SFS has decided a public opening is in it's best interest, to prevent that most dastard of crimes: copyright infringement. Without further to-do, we present the Stenholt Fleet Solutions complete collection.



    What follows is a brief analysis of each individual ship class, with appropriate documentation for available blueprints provided when available, as well as an expanded catalog entry for some of our larger ships.

    F-24 Mosquito

    The F-24 Mosquito is a light strike craft, designed to close the gap with enemy combatants and destroy them (though they are more likely to pester targets to death.) While each is lightly shielded and many critical parts are exposed, the Mosquito has a lightning quick acceleration as well as quadruple AMCs and dual SD_BB missile launchers. The F-24 is able to doc in lightly expanded docking elements with ease. *



    F-24C Mosquito


    F-24Cs are the slightly smaller cousins of the F-24, although slimmed down, with less shields and armor, the carrier variant Mosquito boasts two additional AMCs and is able to fit into any standard docking unit. *

    * It should be noted both Mosquito variants cannot accomodate on-board crew, and are designed to allow pilots to disembark directly to the rear of the craft's command interface, making them perfect for flight decks.

    B-3 Caracle Heavy Bomber



    The B-3 Caracle Bomber is a heavyweight strikecraft designed to overwhelm larger ships and fleet support vessels using an array of eight antimatter cannons and one extremely high performance unguided rocket. The Caracle can be launched from any large-sized hangar bay and does have the capacity to support an on-board crew.

    Barrantes Class Transport



    The Barrantes Class is meant to be used in a fleet transport role for cargo and personnel. It may dock with some ships with larger than average docking accomodations and is equipped with a single AMC to remove varmint from landing zones while docking planetside.

    Nykiel Class Transport





    For all of your long distance transportation needs, the Nykiel Class Transport rises to the call. Equipped with five potential docking points, Nykiel class vessels are used mainly to transport large modular cargo crates and uninstalled turrets. Each is extremely customisable, meaning fleet logistics commanders may use the Nykiel for a myriad of tasks. Be advised, the Nykiel has absolutely no weaponry aboard, save for that which it may be transporting, Shielding systems are meant only to deflect the most minor of impacts caused by space-fowl.

    Philadelphia Class Modular Frigate





    Seeing the need for a base-line vessel, capable of being refit for specific mission types, Stenholt Fleet Solutions saw fit to convert its standard Philadelphia Class Frigate into several different variants. Pictured above are the Jakarta Class Salvage Frigate and the Toronto Class Missile Frigate. Many other variants are available, with special orders warranting their own custom design.

    Chrzan Class Corvette



    The Chrzan Class Corvette is an ultra light combat ship, designed for fleet support patrols and escort duty. A humble weapon system is suitable for eliminating most small targets with easy, while limited stealth capabilities allow for the Chrzan to escape larger enemies undetected.

    Eisenhower Class Destroyer

    As the workhorse of Stenholt brand fleets, the Eisenhower is built to a utilitarian standard. Absent are the spacious interiors of its fleet-mates instead, dimly lit coridoors wind through dense racks of shielding units, power tanks and weaponry. With nine equally powered antimatter-cannons and one large sized SD_BB guided missile, the Eisenhower makes a fool out of craft twice it's size. While agile enough to fly circles around it's prey, this destroyer packs enough firepower to crack the most stubborn shields in due time.

    Midway Class Light Cruiser

    The Midway Class represents a rapid increase in the size of SFS design standards, probably having something to do with penile presence in it's senior engineering team. From Battlecruiser, to light carrier, to light support cruiser, the theories behind this ship of the line have changed as rapidly as overlord Schema's Grand Master Plan of Universe and Beef-Fried Lo-Mein. Full details on this ship as well as a download can be found here http://star-made.org/content/midwayclasslightcruiser and http://star-made.org/node/9189. Be advised, the blueprints for the Midway Class Light Cruiser are not up to do, and users my find issue with turret docking.

    Truffaut Class Light Carrier

    And finally, the ultimate in fleet support units: the Truffaut Class Light Carrier. Boasting a compliment of almost sixty high performance turrets, an impeccably tasteful interior, room for hordes of strike craft, a flawlessly designed engine block, enormous missile racks and a double barrelled AMC capable of engaging targets at ranges nearing two kilometers, this carrier can do it all. Don't believe us? Read this entry in our buyer's catalogue for more information here http://star-made.org/content/truffaut-class-light-carrier, take a tour of the ship here http://imgur.com/a/r6Avp and take her for a test flight here http://star-made.org/node/12014.

    Any interest in the ships of Stenholt Fleet Works can be directed to me, Senior President Senor Jack T Stenholt D.D.S.

    Any futher download or picture requests can be phrased politely and succinctly below, so that they may be ignored in the order in which they were recieved.

    with a full fleet could in place what could i do with it? how many battles could i win before i would run out of rescources or too many ships?

    as a space commander i need to know this just because something looks impressive and sound simpressive doesnt mean it is I need to know things such as ship length and of course knowing the strategy to use while using these in combat is more important than the ships themselves and of course have you the manufacturer used these ships in combat and can you trust your own vessels in combat? personally i lost an entire war because i trusted a manufacturer\'s boasts and becaus of this i am quite skeptical as of late......PROVE TO ME that a \"victory\" fleet can handle the stresses of war and not be just something flashy to show off with.

    Most all of our vessels operate in a support capacity. Our combat ships favor robust shielding and large numbers of high-performance turrets over straight DPS. In this capacity, in particular, the Truffaut Carrier excels. While ships with high DPS are generally good at hunting down ships in or near their own class. Our ships boast manueverability, spacious interiors and the ability to engage an overwhelming number of targets. Both the Midway and Truffaut classes are champions of fleet support, their large defense arrays excel at protecting larger friendly capital ships while their hangar bays can be used as a launching platform for repair and refit drones.

    If you want to know their individual stats, download them! It is not in our best interest to divulge the most intimate details of our craft.

    That\'s the look I\'m going for, no wings, no flash, that shit doesn\'t matter in space. All of my interiors are also realistically designed, no solid blocks of shields for this guy.

    .

    Awesome ships! I enjoy the design elements and functionality. The \"fleet support\" niche does not seem to be very well filled.



    It\'s refreshing to see someone build usefull \"before and after the fight\" ships instead of \"OMGDPSLAz0RZ\" ships.
