The GTD Raynor in Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius

CoW Tech Room Description

Designed to more adequately hold its own against Shivan ships first encountered during the second great war, the Terran Raynor class is the largest production destroyer in service within the GTVA. Its twelve primary beam cannons, each devastating in its own right, can focus at least 50% of the ship's main firepower across most of the ship's length. The Raynor was designed more to provide heavy fire support than to deploy fighter wings, and has a significantly smaller hangar bay as a result. At present, Raynor class vessels generally operate in conjunction with a Hecate destroyer, with the Hecate providing a large fighterbase and the Raynor providing heavy fire support; however, Raynor class vessels have been effectively deployed alone, and can hold their own against all but the most relentless enemy attack. The GTD Raynor measures over three kilometers in length, and has an onboard crew compliment of 12,000 men and women.

Blue Planet Tech Room Description

At nearly three kilometres long, the Raynor is one of the largest ships in the Alliance fleet. Several heavy beam cannons and long-range torpedo launchers are placed around her hull, and she is equipped with the most advanced electronics and armour technology the GTVA can afford. The Raynor represents the new strategic imperatives laid out by the Threat Exigency Initiative: a flexible destroyer class with the firepower to eliminate Shivan targets, the speed to outrun them, and the power grid and computers required for rapid precise subspace jumps, all in a package that can be mass-produced. The GTD Orestes is a superb example of this class, serving as the flagship of the 14th battlegroup.

The stock Raynor has a lot of firepower spread out evenly across most of its hull. This makes it a threat from any direction except from the rear.
