Continent Class Super Carrier

Built on a 3,000,000-ton (SM +15) unstreamlined hull 700 meters long, this armored city in space is large enough to contain an entire village inside one hangar bay. Its total hangar capacity is 600,000 tons, enabling it to deploy 60,000 light fighters!

In addition to myriad small craft, it is fast and well protected, with tough armor augmented by a force screen and dozens of high-power laser turrets.

It is very similar to the Viking-Class Assault Ship, having same basic hull and more than 90% parts in common. The main difference is that Viking class has more bunkrooms and related things and less hangars than the continent-class.

This new enormous carrier functions as the core of the primary imperial fleets.
