The GVD Hatshepsut

Description:

FS2 Demo Tech Room Description

Hatshepsut was one of the most powerful eygyptian queens in history and was pharaoh in all but name when her husband died. Like its namesake, this destroyer is is the "reigning pharaoh" of the Vasudan Fleet. Over 24 turrets, 5 beam weapons, and 2 seperate fighter bays, this ship is to be feared and repected to all who go against it .

FS2 Tech Room Description

In 2360, Allied Command commissioned the first of the GVD Hatshepsut-class destroyers. The Vasudan contractor Akheton designed the Hatshepsut to efficiently integrate the new beam cannon. The process of retrofitting the older Typhon-class warships yielded vessels prone to system failures and reactor overloads. Though a handful of modified Typhons remain in service, the Hatshepsut has taken over as the primary Vasudan destroyer. With 24 turrets, 5 beam cannons, and 2 fighterbays, destroyers such as GVD Psamtik of Deneb's 13th Battle Group serve at the vanguard of the modern Vasudan fleet.

Veteran Comments

The Hatshepsut is not as effective against fighters than the GTD Hecate-class, but her BVas beams mean danger to anything that's larger than a bomber and can be targeted by heavy beam cannons. It is a setback that the beam turrets are large, thereby being easy to hit and vulnerable. On the plus side, the destroyer itself is more durable than any other GTVA destroyer.

Its still is the best GTVA destroyer, and better than the Hecate in my opinion while MUCH more able to fend off bomber attacks than the Orion. In short, the Allied destroyer that while isn't best in one field, is the best of them all because it can handle more types of things.
