Robert-

Listen, I just spoke with Leo at Jensen Design, and the Purchasing Commission-they love this concept!

Okay, check this out. We have seen other ships come in, and we clearly need a good navy, you said so yourself. So, we did some talking, and ultimately, one of Leo's boys made this-

We also did more talking, and studies. I told Leo we needed a spaceship that could lift from the atmosphere, and travel in space. I told him also we needed plenty of firepower, and speed, and it had to have an FTL drive. And, it had to be affordable.

So, we put out these specs (OOC: modified from Stargate-tech.net's specs for the X-303):

Name: JCS-1 Mao Tse-Tung

Manufacturer: Jensen Design Bureau, Fresno

Type: Long Range Hyperspace capable warship (Battlecruiser)

Technology Base: Earth, with some back engineered Imperial technology.

Production Run: Six are planned (Mao Tse Tung, Karl Marx, Fidel Castro, V.I. Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Klimenti Voroshilov), looks like we'll be makin' two.

Operational Area: Atmospheric - Local Space - Deep space - Hyperspace

Powerplant: I spoke to Jimmy Kobayashi about this....he's gonna use an enlarged version of the engine on the TIE Defender, called the KSE-1. He's got it hooked to an enlarged and modded TIE Reactor-testing seems good, it doesn't eat much fuel and we'll be able to do this. Kant's got good vibes offa his repulsor lift drives-we'll use them too, and hook them to KSFC-1 Hydrogen Fuel Cells, good for at least 20 days.

Crew compliment: 20-50.

Weapons Array:
1x TSL-1 Diode Superlaser Turret.
10x Missile bays launching Proton Torpedoes, other types used on Imperial Ships.
8x CIWS Point Defence Cannons (Diode lasers clustered w/ tracking).
10x Turrets with TShL-1 Ship Laser (TIE Defender Blaster).
1x JSS-1 Shield System (based on Imperial crap).

Defensive Technology: Jensen Designed JEWP-2 ECM Electronic Warfare System (used to jam and encrypt frequencies used by the TIE series of fighters and the Veritechs we use. We're working on other stuff).

Support Craft: Hangar bays 6 Gagarin's. (TIE Fighters of all kinds can also dock).

Troop capacity: 500 Marines.

Other Equipment:
Onboard armories and stores for long term missions. Mao Tse Tung class also features JBC-1 Battle Computer with "Gracie" AI system.

Dimensions: Suggested length of 150-200 meters.

Cost: Estimated to be...well.....NDD$10,000,000,000

Talked with Leo. Chairman Mao's underway. She should get done in about six months, a year.

Make that just six months. We'll be transferring some men and Necker POW Laborers to the site. Keep them under watch-NO LEAKS!
