The Celtic Clan Empire of the O Faolains proudly presents its first Adaptive Cruiser.
HMS Antaeus
HMS Antaeus is the first of a few battle cruisers, that thanks to new advanced technology, will be virtually indestrucatble to enemy
attacks, except of course continuous assaults*.
We hope Antaeus will aid in the end of conflicts in our region, and hopefully the world at large, though we know the second will be a little more difficult. Though she is designed for war, we hope to use her more as a deterrent to other nations. She is called adaptive due to her ability to adapt to the varying surroundings and theatres that she may be put into. Also she has many roles being a combined Aircraft Carrier Battle Ship and Assault Ship. Thanks to the Creation Engine she can also fix herself, theoretically without human intervention, though naturally we feel Technicians, from Mini-tech, should always be on board, even if only to keep an eye on the engine. The Ship is driven by a Fission reactor using Plutonium rather than Uranium, due to its relative abundance in The Celtic Clan Empire.
Statistics of interest:
Top speed: 50 knots
Compliment:1,500 (Not including combat staff)
Displacement:
Armament:
2 Platoon Arkalas (20 Men)
4 Batteries of three 283mm (Rifled Gun Diameter) Cannon
1 "Spartan" Anti-Submarine Missile system
6 Torpedo Tubes Forard
2 Torpedo Tubes Aft
4 Starboard and Port side Sentinel Anti-aircraft Missile Systems,
2 Goal Keeper Anti-Air Defense systems
2 Vulture Strike Fighter
2 Fenian Strike Helicopter
1 Martyr Transport Helicopter
Two more Adaptive cruisers will be finished and tested by the end of the week (RL).
