Fiction:Galtian Protectorate/Shield of Stars

Fighters
Star-Serpent Fighter= Star-Serpent class fighters are the main fighter squadrons used by the Ugandalorians in most naval engagements. While expensive to produce, the Star-Serpent has much more fire power, and defensive abilities then a standard fighter of it's size. A fast moving, destructive fighter, the Star-Serpent uses many weapons to totally destroy and eradicate other fighters and even corvettes. Their plasma blasters demonstrate the strange ability to not only blast a target, but to "stick" and burn them for 10 seconds longer.
 * Length - 12 meters long
 * Weapons - Plasma Blasters, Buzz Droids.
 * Equipment - Active camouflage, Shields
 * Notes - Based off the Star-Viper from Empire at War

For larger hordes of fighters that have numbers on them, the Star-serpents can deploy buzz droids that chew away at armor and wiring in another fighter's hull and wings. The fighter has strong shielding to protect it, and can deploy active camouflage in order to fly under the radar and actually spy on enemies for a few hours. Due to it's armor and shields, a Star-Serpent can safely hide within asteroid fields without worry.

The Star Serpent is a rather new invention, as one can tell by their cutting edge weapons, and, as such, it has been a part of the Ugandalorian arsenal for only a short period of time, yet has had a huge impact on Ugandalorian naval warfare, allowing them to maintain their position as a lead power within their galaxy, and beyond. Pilots often spend years training in squadrons called "Coil", 5 of them working together for years to learn each other's habits, and to be able to coordinate their attacks and feigns together so that no enemy may separate them or pick them apart.

Star-serpents are the mainstay of the Ugandal fleet, while hard to produce, they represent the Ugandal's core principles, of hard work and perseverance. They are more expensive to produce then similar Starfighters used by their allies in Cyrandia, Plazith Rim or Mirus, but their hardware and weapon systems give them greater punch and staying power compared to similar fighters.



Kirab-class Fighter= The Kirab-class Fighter is a fighter-bomber used by the Ugandalorians. Derived from their word "To carry out", the Kirab is even older then the Star-serpent, being used since the Ugandals reached space. Used to take down large assault ships, the Kirab has slow firing plasma blasters with similar properties to the Star-Serpent. It also yields high powered Ion torpedoes to disable ship functions and shields.
 * Length - 17 meters long.
 * Weapons - Plasma Blasters, Ion Torpedoes, Pulse Canon.
 * Equipment - Shields.
 * Notes - Based on the Davaab-type starfighter from Star Wars.

The gunner has a powerful Pulse Canon, used to destroy large sections of a enemies' hull, or fight off fighters and interceptors. It is reasonably fast, for a bomber, and has been used by the Ugandalorians for centuries before their integration into the Pact. A strong vessel, the Kirab has been modified and refitted several times, and often, is personally modified by it's pilots to use various other weapon and gadgets to boost it's performance.

The Kirab receives moderate shielding and powerful armor. It is also used as a gunship for many Ugandal Bounty Hunters, and often is personalized for their tastes.

Frigates
Fandasio-class Dreadnought= The Fandasio-class Dreadnought is a powerful warship used by the Ugandalorians to lead large-assault forces. While somewhat out-dated compared to the Crigoa-class and Koridalbe-class warships, the Fandasio is still a reliable weapon of great power and often serves as a support carrier in assaults, and the main line of defense in planetary defense. Originally designed by another race that the Ugandalorians conquered in battle, the Ugandalorians turned the design to create their own assault ships and carrier cruisers, often using them to deploy fighters and escort Cruisers, though can still be used to lead fleets at times.
 * Length - 1,400 meters
 * Weapons - Plasma Gunneries, Ion Canons, Concussion Missile Bays, Triple Laser Canons.
 * Equipment - Shields, Active Camouflage.
 * Notes - Based off the Kandosii-class Dreadnought from SW

Armed with multiple Plasma gunneries and Ion canons, the Fandasio-class can quickly tear away an enemy with little effort. The ships also carry various concussion missile launchers and a Triple-gunned canon. These, while slower to fire, make up by firing three rounds in one shot. The Fandasio-class could carry several squadrons of fighters within it, as well as Troop transports and a full compliment of Mendel warriors for planetary conquest. It's missile systems are commonly brought online to blast away enemy fortifications and cities.

The Fandasio class is feared and respected across Ugandal space, and lives up to it's name, translating to "ruthless". Many an enemy has learned just why these ships have such a name attached to them in the first place. Many Ugandal captains hope to command these dreadnoughts one day in their careers. Captains of these vessels tend to live up to name, striking with reckless abandon.



Cruisers
Crigoa-class Cruiser= The fast moving and deadly Crigoa-class Cruiser is mainly an assault carrier and troop transport for the Ugandalorians, and commonly used in blockades for it's speed and power. The ship was at first, one of the most deadly Ugandalorian weapons, but is mostly a support and blockage weapon now. While once the chosen flagship for Mendel assaults and defensive fleets, the Koridalbe has usurped much of it's role and position, though the Crigoa is still effective enough to be kept as a support vessel.
 * Length - 2200 meters
 * Weapons - Plasma and Ion Canons, Quad Missile Launchers, Concussion Missile Bays, Vortex Disruptors.
 * Equipment - Shields, Camouflage.
 * Notes - Based on the Mandalorian Cruisers from The Old Republic.

The ships uses standard laser and ion canons, as well as concussion and quad missile launchers, and Vortex disruptors, powerful canons capable of creating miniature black holes when they hit. While originally a popular design, the Crigoa has since become a somewhat less-used design, as many commanders have trade in for a Koridalbe-class battleship to act as their flagship. This, combined with the difficulty of repairing the Vortex Disruptor weapons, means that the Crigoa now adays has to deploy with weaker weaponry then before.

While considered out-dated, the Crigoa fills many roles, having no apparent strengths too note-worthy, which is both to it's advantage and weakness. Other then blockading enemy trade lanes and defending back-water Ugandal worlds and their protectorates, the ship also helps transport troops to new locations.
