Description: The Freedom-Class Carrier is the newest edition of Silk Holdings starships. Constructed with a variety of tasks in mind, its concept mirrors that of Corellian Engineering Corp's CR series corvettes. However, the frame of this vessels is traditionally barebones. All weapon and tractor beam emplacements are on the spine, or aft sections of this vessel. Constructed primarily as a means to transport large amounts of cargo, the system allows for standardized container units to be linked into place using very strong electromagnets, as well as moving the compartments with tractor beams.

With the release of the vessel, several other compartments were created, including troop capable containers, as well as compartments that contain hangars, or living space. The Freedom Class Carrier can be seen equally in the Outer Rim Territories by scavengers, salvagers and as large freight units, as well as on the front lines of war zones as a multi-purpose frigate for the Galactic Alliance and her allies.

Hangar: Twelve Alliance Starfighters (Typically X-Wings) Support Craft

Can you just list this as "1 Squadron" and how many support craft it can accommodate

Maneuverability Rating: 7 Speed Rating: 7

Normal Speed for a vessel this size would be 9 to 10. With your weaknesses you can keep it at 7 if you list Speed as a strength

Normal Maneuverability for a ship this size would again be 9 to 10. Combat thrusters or advanced thrusters can be installed to boost this to 8 with Maneuvering listed as a strength and either combat or advanced thrusters listed in your special features. but for maneuvering 7 it will need 10 posts of development.
