The Idris class Frigate is a combatant warship.

Description (Specifications)

This escort lacks the marines of the larger destroyer. Its two turrets are organized into three batteries of missile launchers and two batteries of plasma guns. There weapons are useless against heavily armored targets and they are used to shoot down missiles and fighters, in a close escort role. They are lightly armored and have a close, partially streamlined structure as well. They are fitted for gas giant refueling. All vessels in this squadron carry enough fuel for two Jump 1s. They have a Model 4 fib computer, 6 Gs acceleration and a 4 agility rating.

Basic Ship Characteristics

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 Idris class is constructed using a 239 Ton hull built in a Close Structure configuration. The hull is partially streamlined, giving a relatively limited atmospheric performance that is reliant on its onboard gravitic systems.
  • There are 2 airlocks. The cargo hold is accessed by a hatch.
  • The vessel has sturdy fixed legs, allowing surface landings.
 - 2. Crew 11 personnel.
  • Pilot, Navigator, x3 Engineers, Medic, x5 Gunners.

Accommodations

  • There are 5.5 Staterooms. All quarters are double occupancy.

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 are multiple emergency lockers.
3. Performance The vessel mounts a Jump-1 drive, a Maneuver-6 drive, and a Power Plant-6, giving performance of Jump-1 and 6-G acceleration. The ship has an agility rating of 4 and an emergency agility of 4. The internal fuel tankage is sufficient for two consecutive Jump-1s and gives the power plant 4 weeks duration.
  • The engineering section has a main control room.
  • The jump drive utilizes a lanthanum hull grid.
  • The jump drive is fitted with a jump governor.
4. Electronics Adjacent to the [small craft bridge] bridge is a Model/4fib computer: no backup computer is installed.
  • There are multiple workstations and control points throughout the vessel.
  • The vessel is fitted with communications equipment, a standard sensor array, and has an avionics suite.
  • It has a transponder unit that can be deactivated on command.
  • It is equipped with a sophisticated ECM package.
5. Hardpoints 2 hardpoints.
  • The listed battery groupings are standard configurations for the class. Alternative battery groupings may be designated for specific missions.
6. Armament The normal weapons fit-out for an Idris class is:
7. Defenses The hull is plated, structurally reinforced, and built with secure bulkheads and compartments that give it a High Guard armor rating of 2.
8. Craft Vehicles

The [vehicle] hanger can be sealed and has a volume of 4 Tons.

9. Fuel Treatment The vessel has internal fuel tankage of 62.14 Tons.
  • The hull is fitted with fuel scoops.
  • 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.
10. Cost The basic cost of the vessel is MCr248.060
  • Architects Fee: MCr2.481
11. Construction Time 60 weeks (14 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.
12. Comments Standard cargo capacity amounts to 1.92 Tons.
  • The cargo hold can be sealed and has independent life support and environmental systems.
