The SC Rakshasa |
Contents
Description:
FS2 Demo Tech Room Description
The Rakshasa is one of the most deadliest crusiers in the Shivan fleet. The four "prongs" on its front hull comprise four laser beam weapons of devastating accuracy. The other parts of the ship are well defended with 10 other gun banks.
FS2 Tech Room Description
Though not as thickly armored as the Lilith class, the SC Rakshasa class of Shivan cruisers is far deadlier. With over a dozen turrets, the Rakshasa is the most heavily armed Shivan cruiser class. It was a Rakshasa cruiser that destroyed the GTC Vigilant at the Gamma Draconis node in the Capella system.

Veteran Comments
The Rakshasa, with its three forward-mounted SReds, packs a nasty punch that's difficult to knock out with primaries...but very vunerable to secondaries. The Rakshasa is powerful but fragile, and poorly defended against fightercraft attack, with only a single ventral AAA beam and no flak guns, like the other Shivan cruisers. A careful and determined heavy assault fighter can deal with it well.
Dispite its overwhelming frontal firepower courtesy 3 SReds, the GTC Aeolus can cream the Rakshasa in a toe to toe fight with its Flak and AAA turrets, as well as its Terran Huge Turrets. The Rakshasa is designed to kill things right away, if they survive and get past its main beam turrets, the Rakshasa is toast.
