Designed to be the mother of all bombers, the Armageddon is a sight to behold. Mesuring at allmost 100 meters it can only be carried by heavy carriers. Armed with twin Redeemer Cannons, 4 standard primary banks, 5 defensive turrets and a unparalled secondary capacity it can unleash tremendous destruction at a moments notice. Ultra-thick armor plating and impregnable shields are needed, for it handles like a cruiser. A wing of Armageddons is a threat to even ships such as the Sathanas.

Measuring at 95 meters in length and with a crew of 6, this colossal craft is the GTVA's final answer to the threat of the Sathanas class juggernauts. It is so large that only dedicated heavy carriers can launch them and the cost of each unit is astronomical. The cost is well worth it, for the Armageddon is a flying fortress in the truest sense of the word. It's secondary payload is second to none: 2 massive missile bays are capable of carrying all standard bomber ordinance and the third bank is made specifically to carry 4 Judgment Day torpedoes - the largest and most powerful weapon ever mounted on a strikecraft. That firepower is further complemented by 4 standard primary weapons and a twin Redeemer anti-destroyer cannon, giving it an unprecedented offensive potential

The defense is no less impressive.

All of those defenses are needed, for the craft handles like a cruiser.

It is so large that only dedicated heavy carriers can launch them and the cost of each unit is astronomical. The cost is well worth it, for the Armageddon is a flying fortress in the truest sense of the word. It's secondary payload is second to none: 2 massive missile bays are capable of carrying all standard bomber ordinance and the third bank is made specifically to carry 4 Judgment Day torpedoes - the largest and most powerful weapon ever mounted on a strikecraft.

Less a true bomber than a small warship loaded with torpedoes. It can take a lot of punishment but it's so big and unwieldy that you are guaranteed to take fire from several ships at once, and you will have no hope of evading anything in this monstrosity of a bomber. The pile of turrets and massive hitpoints can only save you for so long if six fighters are in pursuit and every shot they fire hits its mark.
