Intent: To create a Modern Heavy Cruiser for the Iferetes Empire to serve as its flagship in the future. As a minor force in the galaxy the ship in is current state will serve as a unique and fully separate ship from the rest of the current naval forces.
Development Thread: N/A
Manufacturer: Designed and constructed by Iferetes Aviotics, Subach, and Serpena's driveyards.
Model: Infernus Class Heavy Cruiser
Affiliation: Iferetes Empire
Modularity: None
Production: Unique
Material: ALusteel frame, Durasteel-Alum combination for hull, Turadium Blastdoors to critical systems as well as a Turadium bridge, Transparisteel viewports.
Description: Created for the singular purpose of both providing the Iferetes Empire with a single flagship and a combination of old and new technology this ship is named apply after the word Hellfire in Basic. The Infernus class Cruiser, named the Emperor's Hydra, holds a combination of many different weapons all designed in key points to provide a strong defense and attack. The Materials of the ship were chosen after hours of research into ships of the past and acquiring a heavy sum to purchase any resources that are not already owned by the Infereti through trade or natural reserves.
First the Quad Laser cannons and Flak guns were designed and placed among the armaments of the ship to provide two forms of antifighter defenses, each split evenly and paired up with another of the other class to provide a defense that can aptly compensate for the other's losses. Next the ship only holds four Tri barreled Long range Turbolasers and five Quad Heavy turbolasers so to provide enough room and power for other weapons like that of the Ion Cannons and Mass drivers which are far more common in Iferetes Tech than energy weaponry is for the fact that they rend through hulls and take out systems. This is due to the fact that the Mass drivers are held in reserve until Turbolasers and Ion cannons rip apart an enemy's ship before letting the kinetic damage caused by the two variants of Mass Drivers to rip into the hull of the ship and causing mass chaos without destroying too much of the enemy hull.
This ship suffers though in its speed and the high crew needed for it as well as holding a smaller fighter attachment than say a carrier, but also does not carry the power that an assault ship can. Thus is the reasoning for also the Alusteel Frame, Durasteel-Alum hulled, and Turadium covering in key areas like the bridge of the ship. It also encompass a Electromagnetic shielding capability that can act as a defense against the very Ion weaponry that this ship uses on its enemies, future and current. Though with all these carefully selected features the ship still suffers in the same faults of vulnerability that the other Heavy Cruisers like it are use to and is a one of a kind ship, thus there are no more of it after its construction and likely wont be more until a much later date.
