Name/Type: Korleon Class Carrier
Designer/Manufacturer: Serendivus Engineering
Designation: Light Carrier
Crew: 640 (40 officers, 300 enlisted, 100 workers, 200 gunners)
Length: 640 Meters
Speed: 45-70
Hyperdrive: .5
Shield Rating: 2000 SBD
Hull Rating: 600 RU
Weapons:
- 10 Bank's of Anti-Starfighter Turbolaser's
- 4 banks of Anti-Ornance flak cannons
- 2 Back mounted quad heavy laser cannons
- 1 top mounted missile launcher
- 12 Tractor Beam emitter's (located underneath)
Fighter Complement: Six Squadrons
- 2 X-wing Squads
- 4 Y-wing squads
Troops: None
Support Craft: Four escort class corvettes
Other: Standard Seren Cloak Drive MK 1
Primary role: Deployment and Retrival of Korlorn Class Long Ranger
The Korleon Class Carrier was originally designed to support the numerous trade routes that the Serendivus operate from. However when the Korleon Long Ranger was developed it was quickly decided that this carrier should be it's base of operations.
The sleek design of this carrier allows it to remain undetected by enemy scanners, an array of ECM and ECCM are in space to confuse missile locking weapons.
The carrier is also the corvette's power base. When the corvette is deployed, two cables connect to the corvette, this give's the corvette additional power. While this is going on, the carrier shields are inaffective, this means the carrier must relie on it's fighter squads to remain safe. As the power base, the carrier is the corvette's life line, even though the corvette has it's own fusion generator which can power the barrel and the ship itself. The extra power that the carrier transfer to the corvette can be used to increase the amount of driving power forced onto the shell (the more power - the faster the shell - the more destructivee)
As a common practice, the carrier doesn't go directly into battle, but instead, stay's well outside the combat zone, watching from a far and striking when the enemy least expects it.
The cargo capacity of this carrier allows it to hold twenty shell's for the corvette. A speclized tug ferry's the shells to and from the carrier to the corvette's side loading bay (which happens to be where the shells are loaded from)
The carrier itself is always pointed out of system, for this reason the bulk of it's weapons are located in the back of the carrier, with only a few located in front.
With three different hanger bay's, it's easy for the carrier to launch fighters. However the central hanger bay is reserved strictly for the corvette itself, the two barrel's that it use's are located underneith the carrier and recessed into the hull, when they are needed the hull open's up and the barrels are slowly released using small thrusters located on the cannon itself.
The carrier's are inexpensive and difficult to produce, for this reason the carrier captains are under strict orders to retreat in the event the enemy take's interest in the carrier. When this happens the carrier automatically tractor's the corvette into the hanger and abandon's the primary barrel (which is later destroyed by the carrier's fighter compliment who can stay behind since they have there own independent hyper-drives)
