Overview:
After a number of the Coalition's border worlds were attacked by unidentified forces, the head of the Admiralty, Admiral James Brassington, responded by ordering all available vessels to set up a blockade all along the Spinward border.
Unfortunately many of the Coalition navy's vessels were either ageing, too slow or simply ill-equipped to stop blockade runners. This was borne out by the fact that the attacks continued after the blockade was instigated.
Deciding a change of tactis was in order, the Admiralty turned to Cygnet and issued a request for a mobile, heavily armed and, above all, relatively low-cost vessel to track, engage and destroy blockade runners before they could get close enough to land forces on planet. In short, they wanted an extreme-range combat capable sentry ship.
Capabilities:
It just so happened that the design team at Cygnet were working on a new destroyer type, with the aim of producing a fleet escort ship. It was mobile, heavily armed and the designers had given it a formidable array of extreme-range weaponry.
The Vendetta mounts a staggering 70 Killer Whale missile platforms, evenly dispersed through each weapon arc. The launch tube covers are concealed by carefully machined armour plates which blend in with the outer hull, to make their positions difficult to spot, until it is too late.
More obvious are the 20 Class 45 naval lasers, arrayed around the superstructure, providing an additional punch and ensuring the ship isn't out of the fight once its missile supply is exhausted.
The destroyer also boasts two fighter bays, capable of carrying up to 12 aerospace fighters for additional offensive/defensive capability.
Defensive weaponry consists of batteries of pulse lasers and anti-missile systems, as well as a stern-mounted screen launcher. The Vendetta also carries over a thousand tons of ferro-carbide armour.
