Terran Star Empire

Transport Courier

Transport Courier:

Using forcefully requisitioned design plans, Luna shipyards has upgraded the Gr-58 for use by the Terran Suply Corps.  The F-95 outclasses the original in almost every way.  Boasting fastcharge shielding, pulse weaponry and even a light missile catch, this ship is often used to transport sensitive cargo through dangerous territory.  
Secured Freighter

Secured Freighter:

Desparately in need of a capable heavy transport, the Terran Supply Corps comissioned the development of the CR-3095 Crecent class Secured Freighter by CDX Starworks.  This ship outclasses all civilian equivalents in almost every possible way.  Pulse turrets, torpedos and a pair of R-tail fighters provide for anti-ship defence.  This combined with a decent shield matrix and reactive armor yields a secured freighter or a light warship, depending on what the buyer prefers.
Torpedo Destroyer

Torpedo Destroyer:

The CR-1055/Flx Faralon class Destroyer was built as a replacement for the outdated Escort Frigate.  It is a powerful frontline warship that combines rapid recharge shielding and dense armour plating to maximise survivability.  Its offensive matrix includes pulse cannons, guided ordinance and a particle beam emitter.  It has quickly developed a legendary reputation and is popular among Purification Patrol commanders due to its exceptional firepower.
Missile Cruiser

Missile Cruiser:

The Terran Naval Yards CR-3040 Missile Cruiser was once considered to be the Empire's primary frontline warship.  While it suffers from a dated spaceframe design, the addition of the new strike missiles and missileboats has breathed new life into this ship.  These new weapons have combined with the reliable LRMs and this ship's manuverablility to ensure the Missile Cruiser will have many more years of loyal service ahead.
Nuclear Warship

Nuclear Warship:

The CR-3245 Hiroshima class Nuclear Warship is the latest entry into the Navy's fleet.  Designed as a replacement for the aging Missile Cruiser, this ship offers both strike missiles and a full squadron of Gunboats along with pulse turrets.  However this ship gets its name from the extensive catch of nuclear rockets carried standard.  While not as fast or manuverable as the Missile Cruiser, this ship has proven sucessful nontheless and Central Command is considering expanding its use.
Neutron Cruiser

Neutron Cruiser:

The Terran Naval Yards CR-2095C Lebed- class Neutron Cruiser is designed for both long-range attack and support roles and is now considered to be the Empire's primary frontline warship.  It carries the latest in neutron weapons technology, including the new neutronic mines and a pair of F-45 Neutron Gunships.  This combined with particle shielding and tritanium enriched armor yield a lethal platform.
Dreadnought

Dreadnought:

Production of the CR-2050 Nemesis class Dreadnought first began as a response to the success of the Weave Alliance's Beam Cruiser.  This ship's sheer size makes it rather slow, though it more than makes up for this with an extensive cache of anti-ship torpedoes, neutron turrets and one squadron each of both Gunboats and ASFs.  While not as powerful as the LCA's Heavy Dreadnought, this ship is still a capable craft.
Assault Carrier

Assault Carrier:

The CR-3050 Hammerhead class Assault Carrier is without doubt the most formidable ship the Terran Star Empire has ever produced, having played a historical role at the Battle Of Satori.  It offers a huge torpedo cache and 20 of the new CDX Strike Fighters.  The most noticeable feature is the presence of a particle beam emitter, which in conjuction with a battery of neutron turrets provides anti-ship defenses.
Missileboat

Missileboat:

The CDX Starworks G-61 Vendetta class Missileboat is the sucessor to the original G-56 model.  Based on the original's spaceframe design, this model boasts improved engines and shields.  The original's laser cannons have been replaced with more modern pulse quads.  However, the most noticible change has been the replacement of the standard missile compliment with the deadly LRMs.  Since the failure of the P-46 Interceptor project, the G-61 has become the Empire's primary starfighter, a role at which it simply excells.
Neutron Gunship

Neutron Gunship:

The CDX Starworks F-45 Vindicator class Neutron Gunship began as a new long range interdiction platform but gradually evolved into what is without question the largest starfighter class ever built.  It carries the firepower of a light capital ship, thus allowing it to function in a wide variety of roles not possible by standard fighter types.  The F-45 is carried exclusively by the Colonial Navy's Neutron Cruiser.
ASF

Advanced Strike Fighter:

When CDX Starworks was commissioned by the Colonial Navy to produce its next generation of starfighter, the result was the lethal HF-65 Volpine class advanced strike fighter (ASF).  The spaceframe and weapons load is closer to that of a light warship than any starfighter, with a high energy particle shield grid, layers of multiactive armour, and heavy antiship ordinance in its arsenal.  The Navy recently replaced the ASF's pulse quads with neutron cannons, though the pulse turret remains.
