Description:
Earth Defence - Tech Description
The Bhaal is the greatest threat to the survival of the GTVA. It wields four massive flux cannons which can destroy one of our capital ships in a few hits. These same cannons have been seen bombarding colonized worlds. With eight full fighter squadrons and a massive array of defensive turrets, the Bhaal would be extremely difficult to destroy in a normal situation.
We have no way of knowing if there is more than one Bhaal-class destroyer. However, any that exist should be considered more dangerous than a Class A threat.
Developer Notes
A first shivan capitalship with modelled hangarbay.
Name origin
Baal - 17th century goetic occult writings one of the seven princes of Hell. The name is drawn from the Canaanite deity Baal mentioned in the Hebrew Bible as the primary god of the Phoenicians.
