The Alteran Ascension
03-11-2005, 22:25
After a short period of negotiation between our two people, we the Alterans, makers of the Astria Porta and progenitors of mankind have finally come to an agreement with the people of the Star Gate Central programme.

We are proud to present the first step in the creation of a joint fleet: A.H.H. Phoenix.

The Phoenix will incorporate aspects of Alteran and Human technology, such as drone weapons aided by naquadah railguns, and an Alteran hyperdrive powered jointly by a ZPM and human generators. The details are secret, but we will release some specifications.

The fighter compliment is made up of 'Firebirds', the next step in the SGC effort to build human fighters. Equipped with two drones an naquadah railguns, each one has a hyperdrive unit. The chassis of the firebird is based on the puddle-jumper structure, produced on earth made of trinium.

A.H.H. Phoenix, long-range medium cruiser

Crew:200, 195 human, 5 Alteran

Weapons:Undisclosed number of drones, undisclosed number of railguns

Shielding:Alteran heavy energy shielding (ZPM boosted)

FTL:Alteran intergalactic hyperdrive (ZPM boosted)

Sensors:Alteran deep-space

Fighters:18 firebird space superiority fighters

Access:Stargate (force-field protected), ring, docking bay.


It is estimated that the Phoenix will take around 2-3 years to build. The construction of more depends on te success of the trial, codenamed Operation Caelestis.
