REF LEXINGTON CLASS HEAVY BATTLE CRUISER STATS

The Lexington Class Battle Cruiser was designed due to the fact the REF had no medium/semi-heavy sized assault craft (somthing between an Ikarzuchi and a Garfish). The first example of the class, the RSS Lexington, was commisioned in May of 2041. Lexingtons are armed with 6 Long Range Missile Bays, 4 Heavy Laser Cannons, 14 Medium Strength Rapid Fire Laser turrets, and an experimental EBC-30 "Yamato" Heavy Laser Cannon, 1/4 the power of an Ikarzuchis Mega Laser. The ship has impressive armor and is surprisonly faster then it looks. Within 1 year of the commissioning of the RSS Lexington, 5 other Lexington class ships were produced. They are often the flagships of smaller REF Attack Fleets.
