Ships of the Terran Empire

Ships of the Terran Empire

Imperial ship designers keep the scarceness of resources firmly in their minds, commercial engines and additional engineering sections are routinely built in to maximize longevity and all engines are built using fuel efficiency technology, even to the expense of power, even bearing that in mind the imperial navy is faster than its Federation counterpart.
Survey Vessels
The Coriolis is an old design, and the geo survey variant has no ships in service, the Coriolis Grav below is exactly the same however save for grav sensors in place of geo sensors, note the high efficiency commercial engines
Code: [Select]
Coriolis - Grav class Gravitational Survey Vessel    3,650 tons     135 Crew     354 BP      TCS 73  TH 190  EM 0

Gravitational Survey Sensors (2)   2 Survey Points Per Hour
This design is classed as a Military Vessel for maintenance purposes
 
Frieghters
The Daewoo Heavy Lifter is a standard freighter in the design philosophy of the Empire, it is relatively fast for its size.
Code: [Select]
Daewoo Heavy Lifter class Freighter    35,250 tons     249 Crew     399 BP      TCS 705  TH 665  EM 0

Fuel Capacity 150,000 Litres    Range 106.4 billion km   (1305 days at full power)
This design is classed as a Commercial Vessel for maintenance purposes
Colony Ships
the MW (Meyer Werft) Aurora has seen service all over the system, though the only currently operating models are in the hands of the Empire
Code: [Select]
MW Aurora class Colony Ship    21,200 tons     249 Crew     797 BP      TCS 424  TH 570  EM 0

Fuel Capacity 150,000 Litres    Range 176.8 billion km   (1522 days at full power)
Troop Transports
Lockheed has long been a maker of transports(among other things) for Terran powers, and has moved into the space age eagerly by securing a monopoly on troop transport designs, future variants are also likely to be built by this company.
Code: [Select]
Lockheed Universe class Troop Transport    21,200 tons     249 Crew     497 BP      TCS 424  TH 570  EM 0
1344 km/s     Armour 1-68     Shields 0-0     Sensors 1/1/0/0     Damage Control Rating 1     PPV 0

This design is classed as a Commercial Vessel for maintenance purposes
Planetary Defense Centers
It is not possible for the fleet to be everywhere, so it is policy to deploy at least one prefab Sentinel PDC on any colony worth defending, it's antimissile system has not seen live testing yet, but projections are good against the theorized capabilities of Federation missiles.
Code: [Select]
Sentinel class Planetary Defence Centre    7,750 tons     450 Crew     1294.5 BP      TCS 155  TH 0  EM 0

Arrow AMM Sensor 1 (1)     GPS 160     Range 9.6m km    Resolution 1
Missile to hit chances are vs targets moving at 3000 km/s, 5000 km/s and 10,000 km/s
Warships
The Empire currently operates three classes of warship, the Eclipse class Frigate is something of an anachronism and military planners are currently unsure what to do with it, it is the fastest military vessel in Sol, but its light armament and nonexistent armor make it unsuitable for anything except commerce raiding in the eyes of many.
Code: [Select]
Eclipse class Frigate    3,300 tons     337 Crew     331.5 BP      TCS 66  TH 266  EM 0

The Venator and its E variant are examples of the modern direction the navy is turning, the Venator can put out a respectable 15 salvoes of 6 Sidewinder missiles and is also fast and well armed, the Terran Empire lags in sensor development though, so its active sensor can only detect targets at slightly under 3/4 the range of its missiles, this problem is slated to be fixed as new tech becomes available.
Code: [Select]
Venator class Destroyer    6,000 tons     550 Crew     683 BP      TCS 120  TH 380  EM 0

The Venator - E is an escort ship, with 10 tubes for the Arrow AMM and deep magazines, it too cannot detect missiles at the edge of its actual missile range, however 9.6km has been deemed more than sufficient and the range disparity in this case will likely be corrected by developing a new missile rather than making changes to the class.
Code: [Select]
Venator - E class Destroyer    6,200 tons     530 Crew     837 BP      TCS 124  TH 380  EM 0
