Chairman-Class Executive Transport


The Chairman-Class Executive Transport was first conceived as transport for the Chairman of the United Galaxies Council. Well armored, well armed, and escorted by a battle fleet of it’s own, the Chairman Hayes-Hunter was commissioned on 21 Novemeber, 2111, three years after her namesake passed away.
Based HEAVILY on the Túentr¿di RIN NADOW LOJM-Class Monitor, these vessels exemplify the HIGHEST art of executive THE CHAIRMAN LISA HAYES-HUNTER PRESIDENTIAL LIBRAY/MAUSOLEUM (the late Chairman was recently re-interred there).travel between star systems, a space borne hotel. They also exemplify the highest art of non-Ship-Of-The-Line defensive capabilities, as each is a frigate in it’s own right.
Used extensively throughout the UGC as the homes and offices of executives for thousands of worlds, corporations, and etc, these vessels have risen to the collective challenges facing them; From pirates to rebellions to invasions, these little planets have served well whatever the owner requests. The vessels are highly adaptable, and extra radar/radio antennas, thrusters, and weapons systems can be added. The one shown below is a base-line model, with ¨2 retractable pylon antennas and ¨6 thrusters.
Chairman-Class’s sister Class, the Admiralty-Class Command Ship, is in service throughout the Patrol, as well as several thousand in the hands of security services, mercenaries, pirates (at least 6¨,¨¨¨ are used by Fehran Malcontents, and at least that many more are in the hands of Túentr¿di Malcontents), and even as luxury vessels.
Each new UGC Chairman is issued one of these vessels, named for the Chairman to whom it is commissioned, their to keep for the rest of their lives. As an example, the second of the fleet was the Chairman Morhanna.) Upon their death, their vessel is de-commissioned and transferred to President’s Point Anchorage, a Lagrange ¨3 Point between Jupiter and Io, where the gravitational effects of Io keep the vessels moving. It is then re-designated a Presidential Library. (Example; The Chairman Morhanna Presidential Library.)
The only noteworthy exception is the Chairman Hayes-Hunter, which served as a prototype ship (to test and develop the basics of the design) for 5¨ years, then was decommissioned and became the The Chairman Hayes-Hunter Presidential Library. A few Chairmen have also asked that their ship become a mausoleum, and to this end the Presidential Suite is closed off to the public to serve as their crypt.
