The Sydkai class Cruiser is a warship.
- It is a military ship and a Cruiser.
Description (Specifications)
This vessel was designed, built and deployed “behind the claw,” its mission is long-term detached patrols of the frontier section. With the increasing boldness and potency of Vargr raiders along the Domain's frontier, these anti-piracy patrols have become increasingly important to the survival of the Domain."
The Flying Bridge of the vessel is located on the stern wing and the primary sensors are mounted directly below it. While this arrangement offers excellent visibility for small craft operations and holds the sensors clear of the hull, the exposed position is seen as a potential Achilles heel within the design: the vessel can effectively be decapitated with a single powerful hit.
For this reason, the stern wing flying bridge is only used under non-combat conditions. The secure bridge is located within the hull in a shielded location.
