Description: Designed to fill the roll of heavy Escort, the new IFW Assassin-class is all the heavy hitting gun platform any corporation or galactic power would need.
Design:
The IFW Assassin is modeled after the centuries-old Imperial variant of the CR90 corvette. Additional weapon systems and armor plating were added to the corvettes of old to make them better suited for space combat. The New IFW variant is no different.
Ferrocarbon/Agrinium mesh Frame utilized durable ferrocarbon as the base for the frame of the vessel. An Agrinium mesh network is wrapped around the frame forming a faraday cage completely encircling the vessel in an energy network which can absorb and dissipate energy such as electromagnetic or ion energy. This system of frame construction presents a highly durable skeleton for the vessel and offer superior anti-em and anti-ion defense.
Electro Magnetic Non-explosive Reactive Ablative "EMNERA" Armor is a state of the art armor system for the new vessels being constructed at the Imperium Forge Works shipyards. EMNERA armor is an ablative/reactive hybrid armor which utilizes both systems to increase the durability of the armor plating. Two heavy quadanium steel ablative plates utilize the AR-0B ablative treatment to strengthen the durability of the already super durable quadanium steel. One plate is laid down on the starships hull creating the inner plate of the system. A layer of silicar is them installed on top of the quadranium steel creating an inert liner. Then the top layer of ablative quadranium steel is installed creating a reactive plate which can withstand immense amounts of force and heat. when an energy bolt strikes the heavy plating the ablative energy current helps to disperse the energy by strengthening the quardanium steel plate. When a kinetic weapon strikes the armor the inert layer of silicar helps to dissipate the kinetic energy by compressing the silicar as the top layer of armor flexes against it to counter the energy of the weapon strike upon impact minimizing the force displaced on the inner layer of armor.
A standard suite of sensors and targeting systems track and identify targets and feed them to the vessels targeting computers. Standard communications systems keep the ship in touch with its allies and can communicate at long ranges with holographic, visual and audio communications. A proton 8 reactor is feeds the massive appetite of the weapons, systems, shielding and engines of the vessel.
Armament:
Designed with six dual mounted turbolaser cannons, each having nearly a full three hundred and sixty-degree firing arc, the IFW Assassin-class can track and engage threats while the vessels she escorts move to safety. Her two hex laser cannons are mounted on the ventral and dorsal hulls and can traverse a full three hundred and sixty degrees to turn fighter and small craft to scrap. Two heavy hitting quad missile batteries are mounted on the forward hull and can act as both defensive and offensive system utilizing its variable warhead types. While not as fast as most vessels her size she makes up for that in pure brute force and survivability
Complement:
The IFW Assassin houses a full Platoon of forty troops for security. While is had no hanger it can dock with other vessels when needed via a ventral docking ring. The vessel stores can accommodate the full crew complement of eighty personnel for an extended tour of up to six standard months. The vessel's small cargo hold can carry up to fifty tons of additional cargo if needed.
