OOC: Thanks to SeaQuest, he inspired this documentation thread. Martian Successor Nadesico and Spaceballs also inspired some of the tweaks.
IC:
Storm Eagle Planetary Defense System- Based off of previously purchased G.O.D. and Narn-type defensive units, the Storm Eagle is an attempt to develop a new method of planetary defense, centered around a network of remotely guided sattelites, controlled by a central station, in a 20:1, with 100 sattelites and five stations covering each planet.
Each sattelite is armed with dual Anaconda Torpedo Guns, a central Warp Cannon, and a Demolisher Gun, plus dual Light Warp Guns for close-in combat. Power is provided by a combined solar/antimatter unit which uses collected spaceborne matter to fuel the antimatter engine, reducing the need for resupply.
Recently retooled, the system now calls for ten layers of defense, with five sattelite layers, each 20:1 layer holding orbit at a different altitude, the Fifth in Lower Orbit. The first two sattelite layers are configured to project a shield to block infiltrators and slow conventional troops; individual sattelites in these layers and their mother platforms have shield generators that share energy with other sattelites, transferring energy by beaming it from sattelite to sattelite. The network could resemble a large strand of Christmas tree lights with failsafe bulbs-if one goes out, then the shield doesn't necessarily turn off, but it does put more strain on the systems when sharing energy over longer distances as more and more sattelites fall-and parts of the shield can be selectively opened to let in allies.
The lower Five Layers, meanwhile begin with a ground based network of Warp Cannons and Torpedoes for the lowest layer, fighter and mobile suit response for the second and third layers, and the fourth and fifth covered by a network of interlocking Hover Platforms that serve as firebases and as airbases; these have their own mobile suit and fighter screens.
Construction is slated to begin on this expensive project; estimated at USD$600,000,000,000+ per full system and half that for a limited version, construction will focus on Earth and other important worlds to the Workers State. The half strength versions will be placed on other worlds chosen by the Workers State.
