- Strike Hammer: The Kyr'am-class is fast and dangerous just as its designed, able to punch well above its weight class. This allows for the strike frigate to fit the war philosophy of Mandalorians, who prefer to strike hard and strike fast and ask questions later.
- Raider Vanguard: The Kyr'am features an extensive troop bay able to transport large numbers of infantry, vehicles and resources planetside. Excellent in-atmosphere capabilities and a large loading ramp that extends from the main bay allows for quick deployment.
- The Best Defense: The entire design of the fast attack corvette centers around its speed and maneuverability, and the Kyr'am's defense is more centered around its small size as well as its speed and maneuverability, making it difficult to hit with heavy-hitting anti-capital weapons in the first place.
- Vulnerable to Damage: The Kyr'am-class has substandard defensive potential, a result of a majority of systems being diverted over to armaments and propulsion. This means that while it is fast, light, and heavy-hitting, it is not able to directly tank a lot of incoming damage.
- Lack of Complement: Lacking any fighter complement, this compounded with the fact that the Kyr'am-class has little in the ways of defensive weaponry means that the Kyr'am-class is vulnerable to starfighters. It also relegates the strike frigate solely into the role of anti-capital ship, with no ability to transport ground vehicles or smaller ships.
Strike hard, strike fast, ask questions later. For centuries that has been the design philosophy behind many Mandalorian capital ship designs, since the days of the ancient Crusaders. That ancient design tradition has continued into the modern day and the Mandalorian Enclave with the creation of the Kyr'am-class Strike Frigate. The first true capital ship to be produced by the new Mandalorian state, the Kyr'am combines both traditional and modern elements of Mandalorian naval design to be a fast, hard-hitting bringer of death.
With revolutionary propulsion and power-generation systems, the Kyr'am is able to accelerate at rates that is much, much higher than those commonly exhibited by standard ships of its class. This allows it to outmaneuver and outpace other capital ships; whether they be lighter corvettes or heavy cruisers, the Kyr'am is designed to evade them all. To achieve this it sacrifices space that would otherwise be used for extra reinforcing armor, or defensive systems, but the Kyr'am is designed to avoid being hit instead of being able to take a hit, a risk that its Mandalorian designers are more than willing to take. The trade-off results in the strike frigate being lighter, faster, and ultimately more lethal.
It has a very high armament of well, with an assortment of heavy laser cannons, laser cannons, and missile launcher emplacements. This adds to the lethality of the Kyr'am to make it a truly deadly ship on the frontier. It will no doubt be a valuable asset to the Mandalorian Enclave's burgeoning fleet.
