These are my current designs
GAME STATS:
version 4.26
Race Generated, but with slightly wider tolerances
Pop 900m
Start Year 2025
System Sol generation as normal (and then upped the minerals on Earth by a factor of 10!)
Facilities no missile or fighter factories at the start, all construction
Research think I did 2 research labs to every 100million pop
Shipyards Currently 1 Commercial @40k and 1 Commerical @60k - 3 slips each, 2 Naval @ 10k and 2 Naval @4.5k - 3 slips each
Random Res? No
Selected Res Laser, armor, beam fire control, tracking, engines - these were the main ones, my race hasn't "discovered" missiles yet.
I am currently at year 2056 and these are the second generation combat vessels of the Terran Navy:
nb. I have two Jump Engines, one at 4.5k and the other at 10k
Tennessee II class Corvette
Designed for Colony System Defense/Jump Point Defense and as a second tier escort vessel. No Jump Engine is required as all Colonies worth protecting will have a JG link. Their range has recently been increased due to an engine refit for the Mark 1 class which also saw the upping of the armor and ecm from Mark 1 to Mark 2. They have yet to see combat so are untested.
Typically grouped in 3's or 6's.

Ticonderoga II class Destroyer
The largest combat vessel in the as yet untested Terran fleet.
Initially designed as an all round work house, the recent discovery of a hostile race using "missiles" has evolved their classification from purely offensive to an escort role with the hope that the fast tracking on the Katana class turret will protect the fleet long enough to enter effective combat range.
Typically grouped in 3's or 6's.

Casablanca class Escort Carrier
A recent design created to offset the long range combat power of the El Paso hostiles. With no active defenses this first generation Escort Carrier has been been designed within the restrictions of the largest Naval Yard. It's sole task is to carry its strike craft to the battle and then provide initial sensor readings. On contact with the enemy it will reverse course with its escorting destroyers and launch its fighters.
Doctrine dictates that it will then offline its sensors to reduce its signature, the strike craft relying on the scout fighter craft for targeting information.

Tarawa class Fighter
With no active emissions it is hoped that this strike fighter can close within knife range of the enemy en mass and deal repeated blows. This is the sole means of the Terran Navy to project combat power at long range.

Eagle class Fighter-Scout
This is the anti-ship scout fighter, designed to guide a flight of Tarawa class strike fighters to the enemy capital ships. Due to the large size of the sensors and it's powerful active emissions, crew survivability has been rated as "low".
