Description:
The Eviscerator was designed to full fill two major roles the current First Order Fleet was lacking - an all-out battleship to absorb the brunt of naval conflict and a destroyer type vessel that could engage capital ships or neutralize smaller more numerous ship threats. Thus, the idea came to create a ship that was a descendant of the Imperial concepts of the Imperial-II and the Interdictor Class. This gave birth to the Eviscerator Program, which was to be the program that would research and develop the ship through the First Order's many financier backings and third-party construction dealings in secret.
The Eviscerator as shown earlier full fills two roles:
1. All-Out-Battleship:
The First Order Admiralty, however small in number at the moment, was nonetheless well versed in Imperial Design. Having contacted the First Order Imperial Historians (who have been sent about the galaxy retrieving Imperial data). With this they studied and developed the idea for an impressive battle power for the ship. To compensate for the naval fire power the design called for the removal of any starfighter support or hangar space. Another feature of the design was adding Long Range Turbolasers - designed to hit ships at a range which would make the enemy's ability difficult to hit back. However, the Long Range Turbolasers eat up energy so the ship unfortunately inherits the disadvantage of losing power after an initial barrage. This would mean once fired the ship would have to resort to lower powered guns for a period of time (such as the Turbolasers and Defence Cannons).
2. Anti-Ship Neutralizer
The ship is also designed to full fill an Interdictor role, without having to create a separate ship. As one can see from the image - the sphere at the center below the two main bridges - houses two G7-X Gravjectors. When activated they can pull ships out of hyperspace, immobilize starfighters, and demonstrated below act as a second line of shielding to projectiles via gravitational distortion of the space around it. This makes it capable of defending itself against Starfighter Squadrons even though it has a limited number of Point Defense Cannons and no Starfighter capacity itself.

Development Thread: If Necessary (Probably will be. Just posting this in any case to see feedback and have the application set.)
Intent: To provide the First Order with a warship that can be used as an all-out battleships designed to defend the lighter armed SD and Cruisers of the fleet and absorb most of the naval combat
Who Can Use This: The First Order
Primary Source: None.
