SERIES 400 GUNBOAT

ALSTON LEAGUE


Back to the Starships and Spacecraft contents

The series 400 gunboat is the big brother of the series 300. The craft has used the additional volume to allow the fitting of a power plant capable of firing the 400Mj laser at its maximum sustained rate of fire of 400/30 minutes regardless of what other systems are on line. The design is still being evaluated, but reports are that a contract of some sort is likely for the series 400.
