Brotherhood TUATHA-Class
General Puprose Vsl

The TUATHA-Class is unique in the UGC, in that it is restricted to ONE SERVICE ONLY; Most other classes are either restricted to the militry or open to all. The TUATHA-Class is restricted to the Brotherhood of Steel as their sole combat ship and shuttle.TUATHA-CLASS
With a building cost in excess of several billion dollars, the flagship and pride of the Brotherhood fleet, the TUATHA de DANAAN (TDD-1) was specifically designed for the specialized tasks, conducting unconvetional warfare and operations. As well as halting the illegal exportation of drugs and weapons, the TUATHA-Class intercept rouge Tśentrædi, smugglers, conduct long-range research operation, and many more missions too small (or risky, with little chance of a big payoff) for he Spacy, but necessary in thier own right.
Designed by BOS Captain Teletha “Tessa” Testarossa, a minor psychci unpon who's adventures the “Full Metal Panic” movie series was made. Her unrivaled knowledge of the ship and its capabilities earned her the nickname, “Posiedon's Wife” as Captain of the vessel. Armed with a formidable arsenal of cruise missiles, torpedoes and other highly advanced weapons systems, not to mention a contingent of special operations troops, M9 Grensback Arm Slaves, transport aircraft and Super Harriers, this highly formidable warship is capable of rivaling the military might of any naval power- Including the ships of the UGC Spacy.
