UEFg Karuna

Karuna frigates are the main ship class of the UEF in the mod Blue Planet.

Description:

Blue Planet: War in Heaven Tech Description

The Karuna class frigates are the backbone of the new Federation Navy and are the most versatile warships in the fleet. While smaller than the old Orion class destroyers, they are faster and pack a much greater punch. Armed with several point defence turrets, railguns and heavy missile batteries, they are a deadly threat to any ship that engages them in battle. Ideally suited to independent intrasystem duties, they have been instrumental in maintaining peace and order within Sol. As Solar military forces continue to move closer and closer towards a more generalised ship design, Karuna frigates are expected to serve the navy in their current capacity well into the foreseeable future.

Developer Notes

Downturreted version of Steve-O's original Hyperion frigate.

Veteran Comments

Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.

This ship is poetry. Its salvo turrets lend it the air of a World War II cruiser - spewing lines of tracer fire at swarming fighters. Swarm torpedo launchers and an impressive set of forward railguns give a Karuna charge all the cinematic punch of the Pegasus deathrun from Battlestar Galactica.
