Battleships: Primarily meant for garrison duties in contested systems, battleships can pull a high enough speed to run down most smaller vessels. They also carry a high enough weapons payload to be able to form part of fleet actions. Battleships are often used by the People's Navy for VIP transport.

Maximum Height (Meters): 275
Maximum Acceleration (G): 450 in Normal-Space / 4,325 in Hyper-Space
Complement: 3,000 (275 Officers + 2,725 Warrant/Enlisted and 500 marines) Plus Flag/Flag Staff.
Armament Mounted / Weapon Mount Placement
Missile Tubes: 31 per broadside, 6 per chase.
Laser (300 cm): 10 per broadside, 0 per chase.
Laser (350 cm): 0 per broadside, 2 per chase.
Graser (350 cm): 15 per broadside, 0 per chase.
Graser (400 cm): 0 per broadside, 2 per chase.
CM Launchers: 20 per broadside, 10 per chase.
PD Laser Clusters: 30 per broadside, 10 per chase.
Parasite Complement: Capacity for 15 shuttle sized vessels.
~The most powerful warship available for export, Triumphants play a vital role in the People's Navy. They are equipped with thick armor and powerful shielding, and their point defence clusters and counter-missiles (CMs) are quite effective. The lead ship of this class, Triumphant, served as Admiral Ganote's flagship at Second Yalta (see "Wall of Stars"). We also sell a command ship variant, that for an extra $15 million, mounts secondary shield generators and an upgraded communications suite.
Price: $40 billion.
Triumphant-A Modification
Price: $40 billion
~This modification removes all but four of the side mounted 350cm grasers. They have been replaced with missile tubes, increasing the ship's broadside total to 52. This new subclass would be best placed in the rear of a fleet where it can attack enemy ships from long range while being protected from an energy engagement.
Ferdinand Class
Mass (Tons): 16,800,000
Length Overall (Meters): 2,200
Maximum Beam (Meters): 275
Maximum Height (Meters): 275

Armament Mounted / Weapon Mount Placement
Missile Tubes: 28 per broadside, 6 per chase.
Laser (300 cm): 10 per broadside, 0 per chase.

Graser (400 cm): 0 per broadside, 2 per chase.
CM Launchers: 20 per broadside, 10 per chase.
PD Laser Clusters: 26 per broadside, 10 per chase.
Parasite Complement: Capacity for 20 shuttle sized vessels.
~While no new vessels of this class are being built for the People's Navy, Ferdinands still make up part of the fleet, and are still avaible for export to other countries. These ships are ideal for younger navies that are in need of capital warships. The lead ship of this class served as the squadron flagship of Rear Admiral Kieper at Second Yalta (see "Wall of Stars").
Price: $35 billion.
Battlecruisers: Ideal for hit and run actions or attacks on orbital defences, battlecruisers carry an ideal mix of firepower and speed, along with the ability to take much damage.

The weapons are distributed evenly along the hull, divided into six sections. If fully stocked with LACs, they could fire off a simultaneous salvo of 4,320 missiles. While not hyper capable, the Defender can move about, albeit ponderously, to position itself for optimum defence of whatever its guarding. This fortress is an extremely valuable asset for any nation.

~The size of a dreadnought, the Argonaut is essentialy a gigantic mobile warehouse, capable of transporting up to four million tons of cargo between star systems. It's cargo doors are large enough that a destroyer could pass through them. The Argonaut should be placed in escorted convoys, as it carries no weapons, but does mount shields. It is capable of carrying a dozen LACs if it's owners wish. This freighter would make a valuable addition to any merchant fleet.

OOC: Some basic info about honorverse based tech:
Propulsion
Ships do not use normal thrusters or chemical reaction engines. They have nodes, called impellers, arranged in rings near the fore and aft of the ship. They generate a gravitic field that propels the ship. Because of the mode of propulsion, each ship has a cigar shape, although military vessels have a heavily armored hammerhead that contains more weapons and such at each end of the vessel.
Point-defence
Counter-missiles generate a 100 square km grav field around them, that disable or destroy any missile that impacts on it. PD clusters work more conventionally, they fire low powered lasers at incoming missiles.
Energy Weapons
Notice the measurements behind lasers and grasers in the specifications above, that means how wide the beam is. For example, the Triumphant mounts ten 300 centimeter lasers, that would be a three meter wide beam of energy being shot at it's target.

The weapons are distributed evenly along the hull, divided into six sections. If fully stocked with LACs, they could fire off a simultaneous salvo of 4,320 missiles. While not hyper capable, the Defender can move about, albeit ponderously, to position itself for optimum defence of whatever its guarding. This fortress is an extremely valuable asset for any nation.

OOC: Some basic info about honorverse based tech:
Propulsion
Ships do not use normal thrusters or chemical reaction engines. They have nodes, called impellers, arranged in rings near the fore and aft of the ship. They generate a gravitic field that propels the ship. Because of the mode of propulsion, each ship has a cigar shape, although military vessels have a heavily armored hammerhead that contains more weapons and such at each end of the vessel.
Point-defence
Counter-missiles generate a 100 square km grav field around them, that disable or destroy any missile that impacts on it. PD clusters work more conventionally, they fire low powered lasers at incoming missiles.
Energy Weapons
Notice the measurements behind lasers and grasers in the specifications above, that means how wide the beam is. For example, the Triumphant mounts ten 300 centimeter lasers, that would be a three meter wide beam of energy being shot at it's target.
