Andraste Strike Cruiser.


Description:

Blue Planet: War in Heaven Tech Description

The Andraste was first sighted by reconnaisance probes in the Kuiper Belt during the civil war in Sol. Her hull geometry and scan signature led Third Fleet operators to believe that the Gaian Effort had somehow managed to procure an Alliance Hyperion cruiser. Subsequent scan data of this vessel clarified the ship's true form and capabilities.

The cruiser-sized Andraste is the meridian of Gaian Effort ingenuity in adversity. A fast and well-armed vessel, her design combines the powerful engine array of a Federation light frigate with the hull and reactor of an Alliance cruiser, utilising Effort weapons technology - nuclear-tipped slug drivers, plasma turrets and heavy fusion missiles. Like most major Gaian Effort assets she is equipped with highly sensitive subspace sensors to allow safe navigation of the remote Kuiper Belt reaches.

Only one vessel of this type has been encountered so far, under the flag of Shepherd Iseult Vass of Greenfly Cell. It is unknown whether more of these ships exist - Federation Intelligence believes that this particular vessel was salvaged from derelict hulls and incrementally upgraded rather than designed and built indigenously.
