Description

Developed from the Arquitens command-frigate lineage, the Class 546 is a substantially larger warship with a lengthened hull, redesigned bridge, expanded internal hangars, and a higher-output propulsion system. Three primary and four secondary engines give it the speed to lead patrol formations or redeploy between threatened systems. Four quad turbolaser turrets provide balanced dorsal and ventral fire, while the internal flight spaces support configurable fighter and landing-craft detachments.
