STRENGTHS

Anti-Capitol Frigate: Unlike many smaller vessels that are optimized to engage their size or smaller, the Orla'tor is equipped with a suite if turbolasers and is designed to engage ships of its own size and larger as well as protecting itself from smaller vessels.

Swift and Agile: The vessels power to weight ratio and compact design enables this ship enables this ship to be both fast and maneuverable enabling it to match a agility of smaller opponents and out maneuver larger bulkier foes

Well Armored: The ship is fitted with thick 4M Kroop Cemented Armor augmented and equipped with a powerful and comprehensive shielding system. This combination of defensive systems allows this ship to shrug off battle damage that would disable most ships of its size and to stay in the fight retaining operational viability until its opponent is overcome or boarded.

Semi-Automated: Being semi-automated means that the ship requires fewer crewmembers to operate reducing logistical, operational and maintenance burdens for the crew and allowing for longer less stressful deployments. Automation also reduces the processing and response time needed to react and counter threats during hostilities while still enabling human command, control and oversight.

WEAKNESSES

Average Firepower: Although the Orla'tor has heavy guns to engage capitol ships and lighter cannon to deal with small ships it does not have tactical fire superiority in any single category. It is the stereotypical jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none.

Limited Squadron Support: With capacity for only two squadrons and no single-craft hangar, the Orla'tor's ability to replace losses or sustain prolonged fighter operations is restricted compared to other vessels of its size.

Automation: As many of the secondary and tertiary systems are automated, this has caused them to be susceptible to Ion-based weaponry. The disabling or destruction of these systems from such weaponry can place an increased burden on the smaller crew potentially crippling the vessel by rendering inoperable for a period of time and reducing their efficiency.

Forward Firing: Although the ship is able to bring some fire to bear on every quarter of the ship the majority of the fire of its guns can only be concentrated to the frontal arcs.


DESCRIPTION

The Orla'tor -Class Fast Attack Frigate, or Swift Justice in basic, is Mando-De'Loren Multi Atmospherics first completely in-house designed starship and it is also the largest ship they have constructed so far. Based on traditional Mandalorian military doctrine of decisive firepower and durable armor, the Orla'tor has been designed counter any other ship in its class while retaining the speed and maneuverability to effectively engage smaller vessels or if needed and to effectively disengage from larger vessels it is unable to overpower.

During peacetime the vessel is capable of executing extended patrols throughout Mandalorian space and to provide heavy support to the Guard Patrol's lighter units when required. During war it is equally capable of fleet reconnaissance, securing lines of communication, picket duty and even meaningfully engaging in fleet actions by leveraging its five forward firing heavy turbolasers for slashing hit and run attacks. Its speed and agility make it equally suitable for coordinated swarm tactics or solitary operations.

Unlike more carrier-focused designs, the Orla'tor's integral fighter compliment is limited to two squadrons primarily used in a defensive or screening role rather than an offensive attack one reflecting its doctrinal role of imposing power by physically dominating its battlespace rather than projecting power from a distance. The space freed up by the reduced hanger capacity is prioritized for weapons, armor, defensive systems and power generation. Unlike many large Mandalorian warships, the Orla'tor is not primarily a brawler that slugs it out in the battle line but rather a fencer that strikes hard and fast from the flanks. This unique combination of speed, maneuverability, robust durability and hard-hitting precision makes the Orla'tor a perfect instrument for sudden, decisive counter-attacks, flanking maneuvers, pursuit and high-stakes break-through operations in both fleet actions and skirmishes.

Undertaking the role as the largest unit commonly deployed platform for patrols the Orla'tor is a capable frigate able to fill a variety of rolls in the service the Mandalorian Protectors. This is the ship that is deployed when the Guard Patrol get serious and it is hoped this new design will serve long and honorably in the Mandalorian fleet.
