PRODUCTION INFORMATION
Development Thread:
Manufacturer:
Affiliation: Mandalorian Clans, Closed Market,
Modularity: Yes
Production: Minor
Material: Double-layered Mandalorian Steel Armor Plating
DESCRIPTION
As a new generation of warships bring their might to bare upon the enemies of the Mando'ade, the ancient and venerated designs of days gone by begin to show their age. Ever mindful to the needs of the Mando'ade, the shipwrights and engineers of Mandal Hypernautics are again at the forefront of Naval science, marring modern metals and construction techniques with tried and true warship designs that have served the clans for centuries.
However, practicality and time constrains necessitate an alternative option to simply replacing the entire Mandalorian Navy. For that reason, the engineers of Mandal Hypernautics have worked with a number of engineers from rival companies to create a modular upgrade package capable of bringing existing warships up to current naval standards. Though these upgrades require an extensive retrofit and anywhere from a few weeks to a handful of months in drydock, the end result is far cheaper and quicker than simply manufacturing entirely new ships.
The retrofit process begins with entirely gutting the ship of its existing electronics systems and cabling, removing the reactor, hyperdrive, ion drives, sensor suite, communications suite, energy shielding emitters, and peeling off the outer armor of the ship. As new cabling and electronics are snaked throughout the hull of the ship, the previous reactor is replaced with a powerful Firestorm Isotope-5 Reactor, several banks of capacitors, and emergency power cells scattered throughout the ship. The previous hyperdrive is replaced with the advanced MandalTech 500 Series Hyperdrive (with royalty payments made to MandalTech for the use of their product) and the ship's new outer layer of armor is laid down. Far lighter than traditional Durasteel, the Mandalorian Steel armor plating can be double-layered with an underlay of Tenloss's TTAA-C (again with royalties paid to Tenloss for the use of their product) mesh to maximize protection without compromising the ship's previous speed and maneuverability. With the new armor in place, advanced ion thrusters are now secured to the aft of the ship as extra strength retrothrusters, maneuvering thrusters, and emergency thrusters are secured throughout the ship's hull.
At this point the ship's new shielding system is installed upon the hull, consisting of a dual layering of Retribution Ray Shields and Thermal Deflector Shields and backed up by ArmaTech's Aegis Receptor Nodes (royalties paid for use of their product). Followed swiftly by a new sensor suite, targeting suite, ECM and ECCM systems, upgraded point-defense systems, and a number of other proprietary upgrades to various electronics and software.
