Fiction:Nante-class station

The Nante-class station is a type of military megastructure built by France from 2790 onward. A massive space station with the firepower to defend entire sectors, Nante-classes are spread throughout the French Colonial Empire, acting as trade hubs, military bases, repair stations, etc. They are capable of docking with starships through extensions in their midsection and are capable of carrying several squadrons of strike craft. In case the station or its sector is directly threatened, it is capable of unleashing enough missiles to overwhelm the close-in-weapons-defense of multiple ships at once. With the advent of the Angelfire and modern hyperspatial weaponry, most stations were adapted to fire into hyperspace. This greatly extended the range and use of the Nante-class, as it was then able to maintain control over hundreds of lightyears at once.

In terms of defense, the Nante-class is equipped to defend itself against both missile and strike craft attack thanks to its arrays of autocannons and anti-air missiles.
