GTC Alcyone



The Alcyone is an upgrade of the older GTC Aeolus design with better anti-warship armaments and armor plating.

Description:

Inferno R1 Description

The Alcyone was brought into service by RNI following the retirement of the old Aeolus class. Sharing a very similar design, the Alcyone's standardised systems and cost-effective, modular hull improved on the Aeolus' expensive and difficult to repair hardware which forced the GTVA to abandon its wider use. The Alcyone has a single forward medium beam cannon to engage warships, and is well armed against fighter attacks with multiple suppression cannons and missile turrets.

Like the Phobos, a joy to escort. Incoming bombs rarely touch it. Unlike the Phobos, it won't kill hostiles, only defend itself well.
