Description:
Contracted out by the Red Raven military, Taeli and Krayt Industries began designing and constructing a capital ship that would be the main focus of the formal Red Raven Naval Force. Meeting with Admiral Tesh Aquer, Taeli and the admiral were able to hash out a design based upon the Mon Cal's personal taste and nostalgia for the old Mon Calamari cruisers and she leaped into the project with a gusto.
Based on the smooth curves of the old Mon Cal cruisers as requested, the Krakana-class Assault Cruiser is a sturdy and powerful addition to the Red Ravens. Equipped with eighty-eight heavy turbolasers, ninety-six heavy ion cannons, ninety point defense lasers, and sixty flak guns, along with a hanger bay able to fit seventy-two starfighters, the Krakana can hit hard, and at the personal request of the admiral, the ship was also designed to be very strong defensively. Two redundant shield generators, along with thick armor, allow the ship to take a major beating before coming into danger, but it is not with out problems.
The isotope-5 reactor is unstable and can be volatile if it overloads, resulting in the ship tearing itself apart. Also, because of the huge draw on the power supply by the extra shielding, the engines are not as powerful as can be so the Krakana is very slow. The Krakana also lacks any sort of missile weaponry, reducing its combat abilities only a little bit, but is still a weakness of the ship.
Because of the breakdown in relations between the One Sith and Red Raven crime syndicate, Krayt Industries has moved production of the Krakana back to their other shipyards, while also retaining the rights for development and production for all ships of this variety.
