The Korleon Class Long Ranger is the Serendivus answer to the ever present pirate capital ship problem. The Korleon is armed with one weapon, a long range Magnetic Acceleration Canon that is capible of throwing a projectile roughtly 1500 km's.
The drawback to this vessel is it's lack of cargo space, it only has enough room to house four of the massive 100 Meter shells that this craft fires. The shell's are loaded by an automated reloader.
The type of warheads that are used on this craft vary depending on what they are attacking, most of the time they'll use thermal nuclear warheads, but sometime's they'll use plasma warheads or even fusion warheads.
The barrel of the corvette is 600 Meters long and cannot be readily attached to the corvette, the corvette itself is 150 meters long.
There are two barrels that this corvette can use:
The first being a single ship targetting barrel, of the 600 meter barrel. This is used for pin point targetting of a single ship.
The second barrel is 400 meters long and was created to act like a shot gun. The shell used will explode at a range of 400 meters from the closest enemy ship that the warhead's sensors detects, the shell will then release thousand's of tiny warheads that will drift through out the area for thirty seconds before the automatic self destruct system will engage
Due to the ship NOT having any hyperdrives (due to the amount of space that the main weapon takes up) the ship must be ferried to the battlefield on a carrier. The barrel is attached to the under carrage of the carrier and, upon ejection of the carrier, the barrel is tractored into position for the corvette to use.
The corvette's only mode of movement are the thruster packs located on every portion of the corvette. These are used by the AI targetting computer to get a precise lock on an enemy capital ship or station. Due to the immobile state of the ship, the AI doesn't have to factor in ship speed, which make's targetting of enemy vessels far eaiser to achieve.
With no shields or armor, this corvette must relay strictly on the carrier's own fighter squadron and weapon systems to protect it. Armed strictly with the MAC weapon system, it is exthremely vulnerable at close range.
When the corvette has fired it's four rounds. It eject's the barrel that it used, which the carrier tractors onto it's hull where several clamps will attach to it to keep it in place, then the carrier will tractor in the corvette itself into the hanger bay.
When being deployed, it takes five minute's to become fully operational. This ship is the only ship in the Serendivus fleet that is not equiped with a cloaking drive.
