The Vishe class Light Monitor is a defensive warship.
- It is a military ship and a Monitor.
Description (Specifications)
VISHE CLASS LIGHT MONITOR – TL-12: The Vishe can be considered to be an overgrown system defense boat with delusions of grandeur. Built on a 1,400-ton hull, the streamlined cylindrical vessel is built around a ‘baby spinal mount’ (in fact, a 100t particle accelerator bay arranged in the manner of a spinal weapon) and the reactors that power it. Four triple turrets round out the armament, each carrying a pair of sandcasters and a laser dedicated to the point-defense role.
Inspired by the Seydlitz class, the Vishe is designed to pose a threat to commerce raiders and invaders, therefore acting as a deterrent. Faced with any foe over about 3,000t, the Vishe can do little but make a last-ditch death-and-glory attack, and will probably take its foe with it. It is terrifyingly fragile to be used against anything bigger than an escort destroyer, but its heavy main armament can disable a typical commerce raider in one shot and in numbers (with suitably determined handling) can pose a threat even to cruiser-sized vessels.
The Vishe class was offered to the Imperial Navy but only a handful were taken up. It is fairly common in the colonial fleets however.
