Blockade Runner:
With the new Empire blockade of their space,
the L.C.A. was in desparate need of a ship that could carry goods to and
from Empire space. Joint Shipyards responded with the JS109 Lightning
class Blockade Runner, an extreemely fast vessel with a moderate weapons
load. This ship can outrun almost any other vessel and can also defend
itself if necessary. So far it has proven a resounding sucess and it
is the only L.C.A. vessel openly available to civilians.

Patrol Frigate:
The JS120 Phoenix class Patrol Frigate was designed
by the L.C.A. to act as a short to medium range defense platform, able to
defend a system from a wide range of vessels. This ship has proven
itself in numerous engagements. A rather simple weapons load does not
detract from the vessel's effectiveness and this ship can give as well as
it takes.

Attack Cruiser:
The JS175 Phantom class Attack Cruiser was designed
to serve as the L.C.A.'s primary warship. Reasonably fast, this ship
features particle shielding and a multi-active armor hull. Armed with
pulse turrets, anti-ship torpedoes and even a powerful alien disruptor beam,
this ship can go up against the best and emerge victorious. A pair
of Fighter-Bombers adds even more to this ship's destructive potential.

Heavy Dreadnought:
The main weakness of the L.C.A.'s navy was its
lack of a heavy warship platform. Joint Shipyards responded to this
difficiency with the JS175 Stalwart class Heavy Dreadnought. While
very slow, despite four massive ion drives, this ship is armed to the teeth.
Neutron batteries, a prow mounted disruptor beam and an extensive catch of
anti-ship torpedoes conspire with two squadrons of Fighter-Bombers to yield
a deadly warship.

Support Carrier:
The JS180 Crusader class Support Carrier was
designed to compliment the firepower of the Heavy Dreadnought. Offering
five full squadrons of Fighter-Bombers along with both torpedoes and missiles,
this ship is a commanding presence in any arena. While rather slow
for its size, this ship is a force to be reconed with nonetheless.
|
|
Fighter-Bomber:
The JS130 Gemini class Fighter-Bomber is one
of the most powerful heavy fighters known. Armed with a combination
of missiles and tactical bombs, a squadron of these can successfully take
on the most formidable of faction warships. This platform has been
so successful, the L.C.A. has seen no need to develop another fighter platform.
