LANCE II CLASS CORVETTE

EX TECHNOCRACY OF BEDWYR


Back to the Starships and Spacecraft contents

The Lance II class corvette is based on that of the standard Lance class corvette. The only differences being the provision of a 1,500 Mj Spinal Particle Accelerator in place of the Lance's two 750 Mj Janus mount models and the fitting of a new master fire director for the spinal mount.

Notes

Fuel purification equipment (3.24Mw) is sufficient to purifiy 360 cubic meters in 6 hours (24 hours for entire load exclusive of power plant fuel) Fuel scoop capacity is 1,400 cubic meters per hour.

The MFD attached to the Spinal weapon has a 4 hex short range using ladar, while the beam pointer integral to the weapon has a 5 hex short range. Which is used depends on the tactical situation.
