The '''GTI ''Whitehall''''' is a massive starbase.

==Description:==

===FOW Tech Room Description===
"The GTI Whitehall is the largest object ever constructed by mankind. This massive starbase can simoultaniously repair dozens of warships and even has cruiser bays. It has only a few heavy anti-capital and several heavy anti-fighter turrets but they are all heavily armored. But those defenses are more of a precaution than necessity, since it can hold thousands of fighters in it's fighterbays."

===Developer Notes===
Docking pylons have dock points on them. No glow points yet.

===Veteran Comments===
Possably TOO big, dare i say it. Structures this hard can be very hard to put in to missions without flooding them, be very carefull to structure the mission AROUND the station, or have it as the begginning of a patrol etc etc. This station is too large for a simple slugging match mission.

GVB Osiris

==Description:==

===FS1 Tech Room Description===
The Osiris has now become the standard bomber for use in PVN operations. It has replaced the Amun, correcting many of the faults of its predecessor. It is not quite as sturdy, but it has nearly the same weapons capacity, and is faster and more maneuverable. 
The Osiris should be considered a C class threat to Fenris class cruisers, and a D class threat otherwise.

===FS2 Tech Room Description===
The GVB Osiris was the primary bomber of the PVN during the Great War. It is showing its age during the current conflict, as the more advanced Bakha and Sekhmet bombers have replaced it on the front lines in most theatres of conflict. Osiris bombers still in service have been retrofitted to make them compatible with most GTVA missiles and bombs. If well-protected by fighter escorts, a wing of Osiris bombers can still wreak havoc on enemy cruisers and corvettes.

===Developer Notes===
Low maneuverability and low top speed. However, carries good payload including space bombs. Most commonly used in cruiser strikes.

===Veteran Comments===
''The Osiris, is, simply put, a piece of junk. It's a piece of junk with bombs, however, so put it out of its misery quickly.'' 
''Something cute about these though is that they have two turrets, rather than one like most bombers. The Prometheus-R they come with as standard equipment isn't too dangerous to fighters, but it makes them stronger in action than on paper simply because they're laying down fire in every direction as they shuffle along.'' 
''These things get seiouly annoying when there is 1 or more wings of them around, though no comparison to the Amun It's turrets get deadly if your unshielded.''

GTM Trebuchet

2007-04-11T11:09:16Z

Teta: comments

The '''GTM-55 Trebuchet''' is a specialized tool developed to assist guarding vessels in the interception of bombers at maximum range before they can deploy their torpedoes. With a range of 5km, this missile has the longest reach of any fighter-mounted system, and can inflict devestating damage even to heavily shielded bombers.
 
The primary disadvantages of this weapon are that it lacks agility, and that it's a bulky peice of equipment. While few bombers are nimble enough to even think about evading an incoming Trebuchet, the missile doesn't stand a very good chance of hitting any type of fighter. This wouldn't normally be a large problem for such a specialized system as this, but it is amplified because of each missile's size, making each fighter able to carry only a few rounds.
 
Some pilots have reported a high degree of success using this weapon as a sort of light tactical torpedo. While the missile doesn't have anywhere near the effective payload of a [[GTM Cyclops]], it does have the advantages of being longer-ranged, compatible with many fighters and interceptors, and that anti-torpedo defense systems cannot target and destroy an incoming Trebuchet. Pilots disable a target ship's anti-fighter beams and flak from a safe distance, then move in for the kill with heavier ordnance. GTVA Command is considering an analysis program to explore this tactic from both an offensive and defensive standpoint.

{{shipimage|image=[[Image:Trebuchet_320x240.jpg]]|caption=The GTM-55 Trebuchet}}

==Tech Room Data==
The new GTM-55 Trebuchet was developed as a long-range, anti-bomber missile with an effective range of 4,000 meters. It also utilizes the latest in precision targeting technology for short lock times. The Trebuchet plays a vital role in defensive missions, enabling escort and patrol fighters to intercept incoming bombers without straying from the ship or emplacement under attack.

==Veteran Comments==
''Long-range anti-bomber/anti-subsystem missile. Range of 5 kilometers so you can keep people well out of bomb or beam range from the ship you're escorting. Effective at taking out turrets in addition to bombers, a useful missile for all escort missions. And any fighter that takes a hit from a Treb is in deep trouble.'' 
''Dual Trebuchets can take out virtually any fighter or bomber. The only fault this missile has is its lack of maneuverability, and the space they take up in your secondary slots. Always pick up a rack of these if you're flying intercept.'' 
''If your flying escort, there is nothing better, a rack of 5, and you've destroyed 3/4 of any enemy wing before its in range to fire on your escorted ships'' 
''Remarkably effective weapon, The only time not to use Trebuchets is inside of range 1300 (approx), at that range it's accuracy drops off sharply, better to switch to [[GTM Harpoon|Harpoons]], [[GTM Tornado| Tornado's]] or to use primaries ''
