Chevron class destroyer
The United Worlds Commonwealth
Back to the Starships and Spacecraft contents

The Chevron class destroyer is one of several classes currently in service with UWC forces. The Chevron's are reasonably armed, with a 2,000Mj spinal particle accelerator. A number of this class have also been sold to other navies.

Compared to the similar Avenger class vessels Chevron's carry somewhat heavier armour and the two parallel N-PAWs on the Avengers have been replaced with a spinal model capable of a higher sustained rate of fire.
