- The Kongo-Class is actually my Awayhome-Class Habitat that I was too lazy to rename. My current plan is to tug a pair of 'em; one to Venus and one to Jupiter, then colonize Luna and Mars with actual settlements. This is Ion Engine Tech w/ Composite Armor. Five spare berths for an away team on the Awayhome-Class. It's frankly just an over-glorified fuel harvester with two Recreational Facilities and two Orbital Habitats. The RP for this is it was designed as a "city in space" with the recreational areas serving as a "commercial district" and the Orbital Habitat serving as both housing district and industrial district; the industrial district being supplemented by the ten Sorium Harvesters to create "jobs" The Akagi-Class is just a tug, I only plan to have one... I don't really like using tugs, as I'd much rather eat the maintenance and have some sensors and other niceties, but for a freakin million ton (plus!) ship? I'll tug it thanks...
