Strengths:

• Heavy Artillery: The Sagitta-class exists for one reason only: missiles, missiles, and more missiles. With excellent tracking systems and loads upon loads of ordinance bays, it can dish out an incredible amount of damage with its barrages. A small pack of Sagitta-class corvettes can be a major threat to full-on capital ships.

Weaknesses:

• Overspecialization: The Sagitta-class exists for one reason only: missiles, missiles, and more missiles. Beyond that, it's almost useless in any other function. It's a rare break from traditional ship design doctrine, and in any situation where missiles and torpedoes are useless, so is the Sagitta.

Description: Another old and venerable design, the Sagitta has been a valuable asset to the Cerulean Fleet for centuries. Whilethere have been countless attempts to mothball the overspecialized corvette, its ability to release a punishing amount of ordinance has kept it well off the chopping block.

Please don't forget to hyperlink this to its company submission.

It's a little over what's typically considered to be balanced by a single rating, but it's ultimately up to you if you want to edit that.
