Name: Leonidas-Class Ground Assault Carrier,
Information: Created by Ilium Shipyards with Centauri technology, It relies more on other ships for fleet engagements, even if it can hold its own against smaller capital ships. It have a high compliment of ground force, air-speeders, and an assortment of fighters, bombers, and transports for ground engagements. It can operate 17 years without refueling or the need of supplies.
Dimensions: 1900 Kilometers in length, 620 meters at its widest point, and 578 meters deep.
Picture:
Weapon Payload: The slopping style of the ship gives great cover to dropping supplies, as well as a extensive field of fire. Moft of its weapons are ventral, but its heavier weapons are set up for dorsal defense against any pesky capital ships.
The Leonidas carries 20 heavy turbolaser canons, which, much like the turbolasers on a Lysander, are six actual turbolasers, that fire in pairs, doubling, the power the Lysander can put out. The heat absorbing alloy used by the Centauri make it just as effective as it is efficient.
(20 spread our Dorsal, )
It also carries 40 turbolasers with the same Gatling effect used on a Lysander carrier, with the heat absorbing alloy. (30 ventral, 5 forward, 5 rear)
15 Assault concussion missile tubes, 15 Proton Torpedo Launchers (300 torps each. (13 ventral. 2 dorsal. )
1 "super' Mass driver. It fired a 800 ton tungsten slug at 80 Kilometers a second every 45 seconds. It carries only 60 slugs, as it takes only one to greatly damage, or destroy, any unshielded ship or ground target. It is also unguided, and should only be used on ground or slow moving capital ships. (ventral)
ACP Repeater Point Defense System for missiles, torps, and the like.
4 tractor beams.
Defensive Systems: The Leonidas has 1 inches of duranium armor plates and 2 inch of durasteel, all at its thinnest points. The hull is covered in a thin, ablative, energy absorbing organic skin that was developed by the Centauri for their Cutter-class Corvettes. Three Kuat high output shield generators, with a fourth in reserve cover the Leonidas. They use the same heat absorbing alloy as the turbolasers. These cover all arcs with some overlap around the wings and the bow. A powerful sensor jammer is located on the lower front end of the Leonidas.
Sensor Systems: The sensors are also located in this area of the Leonidas. It is highly advance, as it can track the smallest of people on the suface of a planet. It also provides both ground and ally and enemy ship status, providing detailed readings on shield and hull strength, weapon power, speed. It This also works as a passive sensor scanner. Radio telescopes allow the Leonidas to zoom in on extremely distant objects.
Engines: It carries 4 KDY star destroyer ion engines and 4 Novalex VT4,550 V ion drives, giving it good acceleration, but it tends to suffer from the "flying' boat" syndrome many ships suffer. For better turns, small, efficient ion engines placed strategically around a Leonidas. It may not be as graceful as a Lysander, but it works It carries a single Gram to Gram Reaction Antimatter Reactor with two secondary hypermatter reactors. A small but powerful hyperdrive gives it a class 2 hyperspace rating.
Complement: A Leonidas-Class Deep Space Destroyer has room 120 flying crafts, such as fighters, bombers, troop transports, Hawk-Class Fast Attack Scout/Interceptor airspeeders. Space for 4 Sentinel-class landing craft is set away for easy rapid, large troop mobilization. 8 Y-85 Titan Dropship's, four tucked under each wing near the cargo bays, carry all sorts of land crafts. They are connected ventral surface to ventral surface, for ease of troop and gear loading without the need to land or the need of a large hanger bay.
A Leonidas can carry a Legion, that's nearly 10,000, but it hardly surpasses 2-3 regiments, 4-7 thousand troopers, due to space requirements, as well as supplies: As well a number of walkers and tanks, are carried in Y-85 titan dropships. The walkers and other ground vehicles are loaded on the surface of a planet, then held there in storage until needed. They are held 'upside down' so troops can enter and exit as needed. Four are under each wing, for a total of each.
Troopers, walkers, and most other smaller ground troops are dropped by All Terrain Rapid Deployment Pods, all of which are held near rear of the Leonidas. There is a single level pods, containing 50 pods lined up, 5 pods per column, and 10 pods in a row. It is mirrored on the other side, for a total of 100 pods that could bring some hurt on its own.
There is an external on each wing, near the tip, for crafts smaller than 80 meters, (10 spots, five on each wing tip. If you look on the picture, you can make out five pods on the wing tip. These are halo pods, not the Y-85 titan dropships.) These are commonly escort craft, like the Olympian-Class Escort Ship, or docking crafts. The crafts are nestled up against the wing to lower their profile. Towards the middle of the Leonidas, there are more docking collars for anything up to 100 meters in length, so they don't need to land in a hanger.
Classification: It is a Ground Assault Carrier/plausible command ship
Recommend Price: 45,000 credits
