The [[Uthgvoe class Fleet Tender]] is a [[warship]].
* It is a [[military ship]] and a [[Fleet Tender]]. 
 
== Description ([[Specifications]]) ==
''Uthgvoe'' class [[Fleet Tender]]s serve with the navy of the [[Thirz Empire]], a large [[Vargr]] [[polity]] lying within the [[Vargr Extents]]. Its primary weapons are its thirty [[Missile]] batteries. Secondary offensive systems include batteries of [[Beam Laser]]s and [[Plasma Gun]]s, and [[Particle Accelerator]] bays. Defenses are limited to ten [[Sandcaster]] batteries and ten primitive [[Repulsor]] bays. It carries a complement of five 1,000 [[Ton]] light battle riders and thirty light fighters.

| 1.
| [[Ton|Tonnage]] / [[Hull]]
| The ''Uthgvoe'' class is constructed using an 80,000 [[Ton]] [[hull]] built in a Dispersed Structure configuration. The hull is unstreamlined and cannot operate in anything denser than [[Trace atmosphere]]s without risking catastrophic structural failure.
* The vessel is constructed around a long central spine.
* There are 54 [[airlock]]s located around the vessel. The cargo hold is accessed by large doors.
|-

| [[Crew]]
| x751 personnel.
* x76 Officers.
* x675 Enlisted.

''Accommodations''
* There are 375.5 [[Stateroom]]s. All quarters are double occupancy.

Accessible areas of the [[hull]] are fitted with [[grav plate]]s and [[inertial compensator]]s and have full life support and environmental systems.
* There are internal monitoring and security systems throughout the vessel. Individual sections of the hull can be sealed off.
* There are multiple [[emergency locker]]s.
|-
| 3.
| [[Maneauver Drive|Performance]]
| The vessel mounts a [[Jump Drive|Jump]]-2 drive, a [[Maneuver Drive|Maneuver]]-6 drive, and a [[Power Plant]]-6, giving performance of Jump-2 and 6-G acceleration. The ship has an agility rating of 4 and an emergency agility of 6. The internal fuel tankage is sufficient for two consecutive Jump-2s and gives the [[power plant]] 4 weeks duration.
* The engineering section has a main control room.
** Ladders, gantries and platforms give access to the machinery.
* The jump drive creates a jump bubble around the vessel.
* The jump drive is fitted with a [[jump governor]].
|-
| 4.
| [[Ship's Computer|Electronics]]
| Adjacent to the bridge is a Model/5 fib [[computer]]: the vessel has a backup Model/5 fib computer.
* There are multiple workstations and control points throughout the vessel.
* The vessel is fitted with communications equipment, an advanced [[Ship Sensor Suite|sensor array]], and has an avionics suite.
** It is fitted with backup commo and sensor systems.
* It has a transponder unit that can be deactivated on command.
* It is equipped with a sophisticated [[ECM]] package.
|-
| 5.
| [[Ship's Hardpoint|Hardpoints]]
| 800 [[hardpoint]]s.
* The listed battery groupings are standard configurations for the class. Alternative battery groupings may be designated for specific missions.
|-
| 6.
| The normal weapons fit-out for an ''Uthgvoe'' class is:
| [[Ship's Weapon|Armament]]
* 100 triple [[Beam Laser]] [[turret]]s, typically grouped into ten batteries of 10 linked [[turret]]s.
* 100 dual [[Plasma Gun]] [[turret]]s, typically grouped into three batteries of 2 linked [[turret]]s.
* 10 100-[[Ton]] [[bay]]s, mounting [[particle accelerator]]s.
* 300 triple [[Missile]] [[turret]]s, typically grouped into thirty batteries of 10 linked [[turret]]s.
|-
| 7.
| [[Ship's Defense|Defenses]]
| The [[hull]] is unarmored.
* 100 triple [[Sandcaster]] [[turret]]s, typically grouped into 10 batteries of 10 linked [[turret]]s.
* The vessel is not fitted with [[screen]]s or other passive defensive systems.
* 10 100-[[Ton]] [[bay]]s, mounting [[Repulsor]]s.
|-
| 8.
| [[Smallcraft|Craft]]
| ''Flight Section''
* 30x 20-[[Ton]] [[Fighter|Light Fighter]]s.

The [[Fighter|Light Fighter]]s attach to dedicated docking points located on the hull.

''Battle Riders''
* x5 1000-[[Ton]] [[Battle Rider|Light Battle Rider]]s.

The [[Battle Rider]]s attach to dedicated docking points located on the hull.
|-
| 9.
| [[Fuel Purification Plant|Fuel Treatment]]
| The vessel has internal fuel tankage of 36,800 [[Ton]]s.
* The vessel is equipped with a [[fuel purification plant]] that can refine all onboard fuel in a few hours: the plant is operated and maintained by the engineering crew.

| [[Imperial Currency|Cost]]
| The basic cost of the vessel is [[MCr]]66,162.456
* Architects Fee: [[MCr]]661.625
|-
| 11.
| [[Naval Architecture|Construction Time]]
| 202 weeks (47 months) as standard.
* Build times can be reduced by mass production and the efficiencies such processes generate, by increased financing, and by allotting additional yard resources and facilities to the construction contract.
|-

== History & Background ([[Dossier]]) ==
''Uthgvoe'' class [[Fleet Tender]]s are built locally and crewed by loyal Empire citizen-warriors. As a point of pride members of the ''Uthgvoe'' class are used as flagships for operations they take part in. The Dispersed Structure hull is unstreamlined and the vessel must rely on fleet auxiliaries for refueling operations. It has jump-2 range and carries enough fuel for two consecutive jumps. It can produce 6G acceleration and has enough excess power for agility 4. It is ''not'' intended to stand on the line of battle.
