Explanations
Phalanx Anti-Missile Point Defence Gatling Laser Network
The Phalanx, is made up of a network of small, turreted light blaster cannons. These weapons are very able to pick out missiles and destroy them from long range. The Phalanx System reduces the percentage of successful short-range missile strikes to less than 20%, and long-range attacks to under 5%.
Reactive Shielding
Reactive shielding is a system designed to protect the Penetrator from energy weapons. When the vessel’s shields are raised, a special battery bank is charged along with them. Then, when computers detect a substantial bombardment against any section of the vessel, the shield is immediately recharged with stored energy from this bank.
Multi Track Shielding
Multi Track Shielding uses a dedicated targeting computer imbedded in the shielding system to track approaching enemies and calculate approximate damage. The system automatically them distributes shields for maximum damage resistance. Combined with reactive shielding, this system gives the ship an unprecedented edge in battle.
Background Information
The Penetrator Class have proven effective in both large and small scale planetary invasions. These vessels are usually operated by the ISB but several have found their way into Naval service. The Penetrator's are not meant for long duration patrols and describing the troop and crews quarters as cramped would be an understatement. Every cubic millimeter of space on these vessels is utilized to carry troops, or weapons, or machinery.
