The GTD Hecate


Description:

FS2 Tech Room Description

The new GTD Hecate class of destroyers is replacing the Orion class as the flagship of Terran battle groups. More heavily armed than the Orion, the Hecate also carries over 150 combat spacecraft and a crew of 10,000. The GTD Aquitaine is a superb example of this new ship class, serving as the flagship of the Capella-based 3rd Fleet.

Veteran Comments

The Hecate is admirably armed for killing fighters and deals with fightercraft threats far, far better then an Orion. However, if you need to form Battle Line and handle big targets, the Hecate is not the ship you want.

My best guesses as to why the Hecate would, or could replace the Orion is that it costs much less, and that it holds an extra four and a half squadrons. (There are twelve combat-craft in a squadron.)
