The Federal Stellar Navy of New York and New Jersey is a relatively new fleet to the galactic scene. Using materials from shipyards under Menelmacar control all 21 vessels of the FRSN have not been built by human hands. This has however changed with the addition of Chimera Staryards in Earth Orbit. The FRSN started out with the SCVN-2800, the FRSN John F Kennedy and gradually grew through agreements with Menelmacar over the construction of the other 20 vessels. Currently Chimera Station is building 8 more of the Kidd class Space Destroyers. The Federal Republic went to great pains with the Hammerhead class Endo/Exo Multirole Fighter. Many test flights ended in unforseen failures which either killed the pilot or caused them serious injury. At the Federal Combat Systems Aerospace Center, a memorial was erected to all 24 test pilots killed or injured during the SA-43s breaking in phase.

SA-43 Hammerhead
Primary Function : Deployment in combat missions (Combat Space Patrol), interception, Close Air Support (CAS) and Colonial Defense.
Manufacturer: Federal Combat Systems Aerospace Division
Total Number: 1,820
Length : 11.5 m
Height : 1.7 m
Wingspan : 12.5 m
Propulsion : He3 fuelled SCRAMjet (Supersonic Combustion RAMjet)
Engines : SCRAMjet - enabling the SA-43 to fly from inside an atmosperic envelope to a transorbital fase right into ACM (Air Combat Manoevring, i.e. dogfighting), in the (almost complete) vacuum of space
Armament : 1 x frontal, sub-nose gimbal-mounted electro-magnetic railgun (capable of covering a 50° kill-zone) 1 x dual-barrel aft-mounted railgun, mounted in a turret, capable of auto-target seeking and tracking
Existing hardpoint configuration : 6 x hardpoints, capable of carrying:
- a. Missiles :AIM-135 Spartan Space to Space Missile
- b. Bombs : CBU and GBU where proper guidance is available

Features: The SA-43 has various modular components, easily replaced in case of malfunction.
The canopies are detachable, enabling the craft not only to dock on board carriers, but also on various types of space stations. The cockpit usually is lifted up to the flightdeck (hence smaller decks are possible). It also doubles as an escape pos in case of midair emergency.
LIDAR : Laser Infrared Detection And Ranging. Long Range, configurable. Can track and engage up to 100 independent targets.
HUD : Heads-Up Display. Mainly used for displaying flight parameters, navigational information and overall combat intelligence.
ODP : Optical Disk Playback. Used for mission data recordings. Can be used lateron for mission evaluation.
Crew: 1
Unit Replacement Cost: 35 million Federal Republic Dollars

Missiles Used by the FRSN:
300mm Anti Capital Ship Missile(ASCM)
Length: 16 meters
Explosive: 5,000kg armor penetrating warhead
Role: Capital Ship Killer
Range: 300 kilometer range, 20 seconds of thrust manuvering capability.
Unlike the 150mm Guidance is internal and does not need to be tided in with the firing ships guidance system.

150mm (Anti Capital Ship Missile)
Length:10 meters
Warhead: 2,000kg explosive penetration warhead, or 500 shot fragmentation warhead(Anti Fighter Varient)
Maximum Range: 400 miles before motor dies, thruster power available for 20 seconds worth of manuvering before thruster power is exhausted

AIM-135 Spartan Space to Space Missile
Length: 2 meters
Explosive: 100kg explosive burst warhead
Role: Anti-Fighter
Range: 75 kilometer range with 40 seconds of thrust manuvering
Radar: LIDAR System on Fighter relays information to Spartan StS which upon reaching 5km switches over to internal radar for final kill

OOC:I'll turn the nebula back on in the backround for better contrast, and yes please will you correct my prices. I'm still thinking ocean going navy prices and I dont really have a clue as to what these would be for an SN.

I'm still thinking ocean going navy prices and I dont really have a clue as to what these would be for an SN.I think your prices are right on for construction costs... but certain people who have sticks up their butts will argue that you can spend no less than 972510872513153153708974132315 dollars on anything that can travel through space :P
