Description Yet another unrendered/textured starship.

The Tempest-Class is typical of UEF battleship design: big, slow, and brutish. Bearing massive cannons and a slew of torpedo tubes, a Tempest can reduce pretty much anything to slag in a matter of minutes and its armor can take a tremendous beating before cracking. However, like most UEF ships, it is designed exclusively for operation with a fleet or taskforce, and as such has very few anti-fighter weapon emplacements, relying almost exclusively on support ships for light defense.

Length:
-349m (1,145 feet)

Armament:
-15 dual-barrel 'Scorpion' 560mm artillery cannon turrets

-30 quad-barrel 'Scimitar' 76mm CWS/AFS turrets

-8 dual-cell box launchers for:
--64 Hellfire precision missiles

-10 tube launchers for:
--20 Cronus anti-capital torpedoes
--60 Thanatos cruise missiles

Smallcraft/Fighters:
-6 short range fighters (typical loadout: 4 SF-581 Blade assault fighters, 2 SF-316 Wasp interceptors)

-2 SP-22 Peregrine shuttle/boarding craft

Compliment:
-1260 ships company

Ahh, a good dreadnought I see here. All the weapons are on the centerline(s)

You've done an excellent job there. Really like the design. But what type of fire control / radars on board ?

I like the look of your starship designs. They have that low tech hi-tech appearance that really works for me.

which program are you using =?

this design is also very good - but I think more than just a few fighters can be stationed on these babies - just 6 wouldnt be enough to protect them.

Its studded with anti-smallship weapons and is designed to operate with a full task force defending it.

Sketchup 6 is the program right now.
