Berihrolbheh Escort Carrier

design by Yves Simon


Shortly after the Berihr Heavy Cruiser was (re-)introduced, the need of a medium sized Carrier arose, and the high command decided to use a hull already designed and to adapt it for carrier use. The chosen hull was the Berihr. In the few engagement the ship has performed adaquately, although the number and types of fighters is considered as light. This ship is better employed as a fleet asset, either in support or in escort roles.

Compared to it's sistership the CH-15, the CN-15 is faster, trading the heavy PAW for a lighter version and the capability hf servicing and launching twenty light fighters and 20 heavy fighters. The heavy fighters are stored on grapple, but enough internal space is devoted to maintain or repair up to 5 fighters.

Primary armament consist in a small 25Gj Spinal PAW seconded by 4 720 Mj Multilenses Laser Arrays located in 50 dTons bays (5 lenses per bay). Secondary armament consists in fifty 300 Mj Laser Barbettes and 25 Missiles Barbettes. Defensive armament was not forgotten, the ship boast 50 PDS laser arrays allowing to engage up to 250 misiiles (5 lenses per array) along 50 Sandcaster turrets and 50 Nuclear Damper Turrets. A 1200 AV Meson shield was added to protect against Meson equiped ships.

The ship only manage 5G of accellerations and 7 hours of autonomy at full thrust.Crew quarter are spacious (a small stateroom for two crew members) and some recreationnal area are provided.

The ship is fully capable of Gas Giant refueling.
