ADVANCED SYSTEMS

• Disabling Charge
  • Through combination of Motion Sensor, Shock Field, Static Barrier Pole, and Electromagnetic Pulse technology, Treatech Lattice stations can deliver disabling EMP charges to unshielded vessels in the immedient vicinity, or any vessels caught between two Phalanx stations. By firing anti-shield intruder missiles at targets, TDS-66 stations can drop enemy shields and then disable vulnerable systems and subsystems like engines with the disabling charge.
• LR-375a Sureshot Advanced Targeting Array
• LS-132 "Terra" Life Support System
• BM-18B "Dominus" Droid Brain
• C-3a "Mercury" Class Communications Suite
• Advanced Sensor Suite
• TunnelNet VPN
• Aegis SH13LD

STRENGTHS

• Critical Strike
  • Lattice stations are able to deliver disabling electromagnetic charges to unshielded objects and vessels. These crippling charges streak like bolts of lightning from the bottom of the station where the complex technology is housed. If they connect, ships are left stranded and helpless as their weapons and engines are rendered inert
• System-Wide Web
  • Best deployed in large numbers over a wide area of space, Lattice defense stations all "talk" to each other. They share information with their advanced communication suite so that operators are left with no blind spots. A large network of TDS-66 Stations can keep a watchful eye on large sectors of space, also boasting the ability to defend themselves and engage almost any kind of ship, due to strong armament and defenses.

WEAKNESSES

• Immobile
  • Lattice Stations are meant to sit either in an orbit or in a relatively stationary position in space. They're not built to be mobile defense platforms, and their lack of proper propulsion reflects that. If these stations need to move, it'll take them a while
• Lighthouse
  • Due to the amount of ion and EM energy these defense stations channel when firing their disabling charge, they become extremely visible on scanners and sensors when charging and firing.

DESCRIPTION

Designed and constructed to be used in large numbers, Lattice stations were named for the overlapping defensive network they can provide. Through deploying starfighters to intercept rogue ships and perform scouting missions, or blasting frigates into dust with turbolaser batteries, these stations are well equipped for conventional combat. Treatech does not employ these stations on a large scale outside of the Jhiaxus system, in order to conceal their potential for large scale defense.

Mr. Janus

Nicely made! Howeve this part:

Support Craft:

• 1 Bomber Squadron

Bombers are not Support crafts.

Support craft (dropships, shuttles,gunships,etc)
