The Sacred class Utility Boat is TL–14 military troop transport.

Description (Specifications)[edit]

The Sacred class Utility Boat class is used by the Tenjada Moralitate's warships. They carry a very advanced computer to provide the best ECM suite. They are fast but lack agility; several naval vessels like the Holdemar class Destroyers deploy these utility boats. They are streamlined to take advantage of planetary atmospheres. They can deliver troops, cargo and crew. The weapons are used to buy just enough time to allow escape. The vessel has a fully streamlined, needle/wedge structure hull. It is fitted with fuel scoops allowing it to perform wilderness ocean refueling.

Basic Ship Characteristics[edit]

Following the Imperial Navy and IISS Universal Ship Profile and data, additional information is presented in the format shown here. The small craft factor indicates the number of squadrons (of ten craft) carried on the ship. Tonnage on the universal ship profile is shown in kilotons (thousands of tons) where necessary. [1]

Basic Ship Characteristics [2]
No. Category Remarks
1. Tonnage The Sacred class Utility Boat is constructed using a 55 Ton hull built in a streamlined needle/wedge configuration. The hull is fully streamlined allowing ocean refueling, that is further enhanced by its onboard gravitic systems.
  • The vessel has one airlock. The cargo hold is accessed by a lateral cargo bay doors that also serves to anchor docking clamps for service vehicles.
2. Crew x13 personnel.
  • x1 pilot and x12 marines.

Accommodations

  • There are 2 acceleration couches on the small craft dridge. There are an additional 11 acceleration couches in the troop bay which support 24 hours of life support.

Accessible areas of the hull are fitted with grav plates and inertial compensators 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 is an emergency locker.
3. Performance The vessel mounts a Maneuver-6 drive, and an upgraded fusion Power Plant-6, giving performance of 6-G acceleration. The ship has an agility rating of 0 and an emergency agility of 6. The internal fuel tankage gives the power plant 4 weeks duration.
  • The engineering section has a main control room.
4. Electronics Adjacent to the bridge is a Model/3 computer.
  • There are multiple workstations and control points throughout the vessel.
  • The vessel is fitted with communications equipment, a basic sensor array, and has an avionics suite. They have system range laser, microwave and radio communication arrays.
  • It has an automatic holy transponder unit that interrogates other systems within range at all times, exchanging scriptural passages to authenticate and update all systems with the latest patch levels.
5. Hardpoints x1 hardpoints.
  • The listed weapons systems are typical for the class.
6. Armament Sacred class Utility Boat are fitted with weapon systems for self defense.
  • x1 fusion gun firing as a factor 4 battery
7. Defenses None.
8. Craft None.
9. Fuel Treatment The vessel has internal fuel tankage of 3.3 Tons.
10. Cost The basic cost of the vessel is MCr61.525 (base)
MCr 49.22 (qty)
  • Architects Fee: MCr0.615
11. Construction Time 24 weeks as standard, 19 weeks in bulk.
  • 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.
12. Comments Standard cargo capacity amounts to 10.95 Tons.
  • The cargo hold can be sealed and has independent life support and environmental systems.
  • Sections of the hold may be isolated if desired and can be provided with specialized environmental conditions, typically refrigeration.
