SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Heavy Quadanium Steel hull plating
  • HIMS (Hyperwave Inertial Momentum Sustainer)
Strengths:
  • Plague Carrier: The Plague-Class Super Carrier retains an impressive hangar, one which can carry sixteen squadrons of starfighters or equivalent craft.
  • Quadanium Plating: Heavy quadanium plating on the top and belly of the ship provides some protection that exceeds the rest of the quadanium hull, supplying the carrier with defenses that are moderately above average. This should not be confused with a reinforced hull, as this is not comparable.
  • HIMS: Retaining a hyperwave inertial momentum sustainer, the Plague-Class Super Carrier is capable of countering the effects of interdiction fields.
Weaknesses:
  • Exposed Bridge: The highest point on the ship, as well as the only portion of the ship which extends above the hull, is the bridge. This makes it a high-profile target for attack craft like starfighters and bombers.
  • Sluggish: Even for a ship of its size and purpose, the Plague-Class Super Carrier is incredibly slow.
Description:
Designed to provide the Sith Empire with the means of transporting a large amount of starfighters into naval engagements without requiring other capital ships to make sacrifices for hangar space, the Plague-Class is a 3000 meter Super Carrier with a side-loading hangar and quadanium plating along the top and belly of the ship. It is incredibly slow moving, and relatively slow turning, with a light armament that is well below average for a ship of its size. It makes up for its lower armament with its modest defenses, but its primary role is the transport of large swathes of assault craft into naval engagements.

The super carrier is also equipped with a HIMS which allows it to counter the effects of most interdiction fields.
