The CCS '''''Predator''''' was a ''[[Lung Wang]]''-class [[DropShip]] in service with the [[Capellan Confederation Armed Forces]].
 
 
 
==History==
 
==History==
As of [[3076]]. the ''Predator'' was considered the most decorated ''Lung Wang'' in the Capellan navy. She had fought in the [[Jihad]] with distinction, tangled with [[Word of Blake]] [[Pocket WarShip]]s on several occasions, and destroyed two ''[[Union]]''-class Pocket WarShips on her own.<ref name=XTROL13>''Experimental Technical Readout: Liao'', p. 13</ref>

Manufacturer [[Rashpur-Owens, Inc.]] requested the ''Predator'' in 3076 for an experimental refit that saw the vessel's nose weapons bay upgraded to three salvaged [[Sub-Capital Laser/3]]s and three [[ELRM-20]] launchers, two [[Large Pulse Laser]] and a [[Medium Pulse Laser]] to further improve its already formidable anti-[[aerospace fighter]] capabilities. Also, a salvaged [[mobile HPG]] was installed for improved early warning and patrol capabilities. The cargo capacity was reduced to 18.5 tons, and twenty-five additional [[double heat sink]]s were installed (for a total of 100).<ref name=XTROL13/>

''Technical Readout: Prototypes'' states that the CCS ''Predator'' destroyed two Blakist ''Union'' Pocket WarShips in a single confrontation. While this is likely the same event that was previously mentioned in ''Experimental Technical Readout: Liao'', the latter source seems to imply the destruction of the two ''Union''s took place prior to the ''Predator'''s conversion, while the former source seems to imply it proved the power of the ''Predator'' after its conversion. It is thus possible that the ''Predator'' destroyed four ''Union'' Pocket WarShips by [[3090]].
