Crossbow class Missile Frigate

HOME ¦ BACK ¦ TOP ¦ BOTTOM | MENU ¦ COMMENT

I worked up a couple of TL12 missile bay armed SDBs, one at 1000 and one at 2000 tons. This was prompted by a comment (I can't find anymore) about having tenders carry shoals of 1000 or 2000 ton missile bay armed ships. Doubling the hull size led to a lot of extra space, which I could have used for more armor or a bunch of backups. I decided to go with armor in the end since this is supposed to be used in a mass attack.

See also the Archer class Missile Frigate, built on the same idea but smaller.
