The Vengeance is the largest dedicated fighter-carrier DropShip in use by the Successor States. While being an areodyne this dropship isn't capable of atmospheric operations. Fighters are deployed through 8 launch decks at forward end and one large recovery deck at aft part of the ship. Because of this ship is forced to shut down the engines while fighter recovery processed, as engine thrust could easily destroy any incoming fighters. Most of these precious ships serve under Successor States flags, however few can be found in merchant units.
Cargo
Vengeance has 47 small decks placed vertically to ship plane (so it's nose is always up), while in central part there's located large docking bay where 40 fighters and 3 support crafts are stored.
Variants
- Kallon Industries attempted to refit Vengeance-class in order to improve it's rather poor weaponry, as a result ship weaponry range was improved, but total damage it could inflict was unchanged, and ship mass increased by 1 000 tons.
