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 subcraft) carried on the ship. Tonnage on the universal ship profile is shown in kilotons (...thousands of tons) where necessary.

---|---|---|
No. | Category | Remarks |
1. | Tonnage / Hull | The Pride of Talokan class Battleship class is constructed using a 300,000 dTon hull built in an unstreamlined asteroid configuration.
|
2. | Crew | x2,326 personnel:
Accommodations
Accessible areas of the hull are fitted with grav plates and inertial compensators and have full life support and environmental systems.
|
3. | Performance | The vessel mounts a Cobalt Dynamics Jump 4 drive, a Magnum Flow Reactionless 1G drive, and a Power Plant-4, giving performance of Jump-4 and 1G acceleration. The ship has an agility rating of 1 and an emergency agility of 1. It is a long-range design: the internal fuel tankage is sufficient for a single jump 4, with drop tanks for an additional jump 4 and gives the power plant 4 weeks duration.
|
4. | Electronics | Adjacent to the bridge is an efficient Model/7fib computer: with a full backup computer is installed. There are multiple holo-dynamically reconfigurable Workstations.
Electromagnetic Spectrum Sensors include the following. • Active IR (infrared radiation, thermal imaging) (Active Sensor) • Laser / Light Sensors (Passive Sensor) • LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) – also called LADAR (Laser Detection and Ranging) (Active Sensor) • Prismatic (anti-laser) aerosol (countermeasure) • Magnetic Sensor (Passive Sensor) • Neutrino Sensor (Passive Sensor) • Passive IR (infrared radiation, thermal imaging) (Passive Sensor) • RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) (Active Sensor) • All-weather RADAR (improved function in a variety of environmental conditions) (Active Sensor) • RADAR Direction Finder (Passive Sensor) • RADAR Jammer (Active ECM) • Radiation Sensor (Passive Sensor) • Radio Detector (Communications Equipment) (Passive Sensor) • Radio Direction Finder (Passive Sensor) • Radio Jammer (Active ECM) • UV Detector (ultraviolet radiation) (Passive Sensor) Gravitic Equipment • Densitometer (gravitic sensor) (Passive Sensor) Navigational Aids • Inertial Locator (navigational aid, data improvement)
|
5. | Hardpoints | x3,000 hardpoints.
|
6. | Armament | The normal weapons fit-out is:
|
7. | Defenses | Factor 7 hull armor, 2 x factor 3 Nuclear Dampers, and 2 x factor 3 Meson Screens.
|
8. | Craft | Flight Section
The Pride of Talokan class Battleships usually carry two companies of small Grav APCs for the direct action team to deploy and ex-filtrate. The vehicles are housed in a dedicated hanger.
|
9. | Fuel Treatment | The vessel has internal fuel tankage of 132,000 dTons.
Droptanks Examples of the class in military service are routinely fitted with Droptanks capable of supporting an additional jump-4 for extended range operations. |
10. | Cost | The basic cost of the vessel, complete without the subcraft, is MCr176,710.79.
|
11. | Construction Time | 228 weeks individually, 182 weeks in quantity.
|
12. | Comments | Standard cargo capacity amounts to 300 dTons. |
History & Background (Dossier)
Designed and built for Talokan Armed Forces these planetoid vessels have extensive reinforcement and additional hull plating to raise the armor valve to defend critical systems. The ships are limited by the single maneuver drive system, which yields low thrust, acceleration and agility. The heavier missile bays would have been preferred to the swarms of missile turrets but labor shortages prevented the extra fusion tunneling. The fighters allow some pursuit of faster targets that try to get away. They keep targets occupied, hopefully long enough for the mothership to arrive. There had been some hope that more than a single marine battalion could be transported, but that didn't work out. They do carry shuttles for refueling and troop recovery. They have two companies of Grav APCs to support their marine task force.
