Description[edit]
Created by the Raven Alliance, the NL-45 "Gunboat" is a Clan small craft designed for the role of a patrol and small escort vessel. Produced by United Outworlders Corporation on Ramora, the NL-45 is also used to augment Clan Snow Raven's touman of aerospace assets by serving as a boarding and Electronic Warfare craft.
The "Gunboat" would soon become a boon to the UOC, becoming a popular model to sell to other Clans.[3]
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
Designed to provide heavy firepower, the craft's main arsenal is mostly focused in its front firing arc. Mounted in the nose section are two ER PPCs with a pair of Clan built Class 5 Rotary Autocannons. The aft firing arc is armed with a pair of ER Large Lasers, so as to fend off anyone tailing the "Gunboat."
The hull is layered with 22 tons of Ferro-Aluminum armor, and with two Anti-Missile Systems that are found in each of its left & right flanks.
To fulfill its role as an Electronic Warfare vessel, the craft carries both an ECM Suite and a Beagle Active Probe.[3]
Cargo[edit]
Built in line with the original Star League NL-series transports, the NL-45 is able to carry only a single Point of battle armor. This leaves only a half-ton worth of room for general cargo.
Notes[edit]
- All crew members have to sleep in steerage-class quarters.
- The NL-45 "Gunboat" is subject to the following Design Quirks:
