Swordfish

Briefing

The Swordfish has a lot of history with the Sol Navy: It was the very first warship to have a dark matter drive, and with it first contact with the Sonna. It was an extremely large ship for its time, and even now it stands out as a massive warship next to other destroyers. After several generations, the modern Swordfish used today has a powerplant four times the size of what it was originally outfitted with. It also has more powerful beam weapons since it initiated the war with the Sonna. The extra size allowed for a 80ktons of additional armor plating, making this ship hard to kill. Though it is a dated warship both in design and speed, commanders still swear by its ability to take hard hits and reciprocate even harder. Veteran officers tend to stay with these ships, whether for nostalgia or its deep rooted history of success in combat.
