Regulus class Strike Cruisers
Envisioned as the smallest hull that would hold the largest available particle accelerator spinal mounted weapon. The ship is literally wrapped around this primary weapon. At first, Vilani designs of the Ziru Sirka were ill equipped to repel firepower of this magnitude. They have 124 double occupancy staterooms for 242 crew which include: 11 command, 50 engineering, 65 gunnery, 5 flight, 31 service and 80 marines. Unarmored, under-powered and poorly protected, they feature the experimental, reverse engineered repulsors. The design's focus is on offensive power. They deployed with Jump-2 drop tanks for extended range strike missions.

History & Background (Dossier)

They served with the Terran Confederation Navy during the period of the Interstellar Wars. They featured the offensive punch of the larger Admiral Clarkson class Attack Cruisers, with fewer heavy missile bays, they lacked agility and were defensively weak. They could be overwhelmed by massed Vilani long range missile salvos. They were cramped with full frozen watch and only 124 staterooms for 242 crew. Spartan and devoid of crew comfort they were expected to kill for a living. A few later versions were overhauled and converted into light carriers after a major refit, once meson armed ships took the lead.
