ADVANCED SYSTEMS
STRENGTHS
  • Command & Coordination: Designed to serve as a C&C ship, the Vindicator IV allows fleets to maintain cohesion even under jamming, hyperspace disruption, or degraded communication zones.
  • Hybrid Doctrine: Combines long-range firepower with carrier functionality and support, making it versatile in multiple theaters.
  • Advanced Defenses: Multi-layered shields, ECM systems, and missile denial capabilities allow it to hold position without immediate support.
  • Modular Architecture: Core systems and compartments can be swapped or upgraded between missions for adaptability.
WEAKNESSES
  • Limited Starfighter Complement: Lacks the volume of a full fleet carrier; must rely on coordination with other carriers or local superiority.
  • No Interdiction Systems: Cannot prevent hyperspace escape or trap enemies, must rely on allies for battlefield lockdown.
  • Not a Brawler: While armed, it's not meant to withstand sustained front-line pounding from heavier assault ships.
DESCRIPTION
The Vindicator IV-class Light Support Carrier represents the fourth generation of a storied command vessel line, evolved from the First Order's emphasis on decisive force projection into a Commonwealth-era role of coordination, precision, and adaptability. At 750 meters, the Vindicator IV is compact for a command platform, but it makes efficient use of every meter.

Blending command & control with long-range firepower and light carrier functionality, the Vindicator IV is intended not to lead from the front but to orchestrate the fleet around it. A sophisticated array of sensor, communications, and electronic warfare systems allows it to act as a signal hub even in degraded or contested environments. Future-proofed through its compatibility with forthcoming AI systems, the ship maintains high network awareness and operational fluidity.

While capable of defending itself, its primary role is coordination, whether that’s launching strikecraft to support allied ships, firing long-range ordnance from behind the line, or relaying orders to encircling forces. Its Longbow III Railgun anchors its primary armament, while Maher II and Vilestar II turrets apply persistent pressure from distance. Anti-fighter defenses include a layered flak system and integrated microtorpedoes for mid-to-close range deterrence.

The Vindicator IV’s hangar facilities are modest, housing five squadrons of fighters and two support squadrons, including Prowler EW units and Scryver repair drones. The carrier complements larger starfighter groups but does not replace full-size fleet carriers.

Designed for Limited Production, each Vindicator IV is expected to serve with distinction among Commonwealth battlegroups, rapid-response fleets, and expeditionary forces. Its modular core systems allow retrofitting as needed, giving commanders flexibility for future deployments across multiple theaters of war.
