This is primary new heavy cruiser replacing the admiral class.

It is a very fast and well-protected reactionless drive starship.

It’s designed almost exclusively for ship-to-ship battles, with a heavy armament of X-ray lasers and missiles, and a powerful defensive force screen. Its 30,000-ton (SM +11) streamlined hull is about 150 meters long, with good acceleration and interstellar performance.
