Overview
The Condurian Navy had first designed the Chariot for quick assaults on Payian naval targets, first drawn up during the Payian-Condurian War she was put straight into construction. First ship of her class and only one to be constructed during the War was named "Hydra".
The "Hydra" was the pride of the Condurian revolution; she had sunk over twenty warships and defended what the condurian's named "Victory Straight" which was two small islands that stood between Payal and Condure. The "Hydra" became the Payian Navy main target after she assaulted and crippled the PRN Tempest which was a Payian Dreadnaught which never saw action again during the war.
She was finally caught up 20 miles of the coast of "Victory Straight" by two salvation Battle cruisers, the PRN Robin and the PRN Liberator who chased for over 32 hours before finally sinking her around two-three am. She had taken fourteen salvos before her hull was breached and she began to sink, out of the crew of 954 only 321 survived the rest were either killed by the bombardment or went down with the carrier.
Her Service within the Condurian navy was two years, 6 months and four weeks. She was the shining example of how much the underdog can fight back against its superior enemy. After her sinking the Payian navy never meet any other ship that would threaten their fleet movement.
Development
After the War ended and Condure became a puppet of Payal, the Chariot Class Carrier was taken back to the drawing board. Her design became larger and more heavily armed; she was redesigned to make an impact against invaders and to service as a fleet battleship.
Her length, width and height were extended to give her more room for fighter capacity than she used to have. Her redesign took over several months and changed the look of her all together; she became longer, wider and a bit higher. She was designed to become the Carrier of the fleet and head of inland operations, along with updated weapons systems she has been fitted with nuclear reactors which will allow her to go longer then she used too, she would be able to take up more of a role in the ocean than she was first made for.
Her hanger capacity was increased to accommodate more aircraft giving her more fighter/bomber power if needed, her bulkhead, deck, belt and bulge armour was increased to give her more protection from enemy attacks, this was done after the amount of punishment she took from the Payian Battle cruisers during her last hours.
