Type M-1 Sphinx Workpods
- 2 Type M-1 Sphinx Workpods
- A light industrial manipulator, with room for two. Powered by one microfusion reactor, four alfinium krellide power storage cells and four RCS thrusters, the Sphinx Workpod is used mainly as an Engineering shuttle to repair anything on the outside. Along with the Work Bee, the various Sphinx Workpod types are a common site in any large Federation shipbuilding facility. Intended never to be far from its parent facility, the Workpod was designed to allow greater user hands-on control of the various functions involved with day-to-day construction and repair. With more tools then the Work Bee, the Sphinx M1A and M2A are used primarily to manipulate spaceborne hardware during construction.
On the Independence the Work Bee is designed to opperate outside the ship's shield and to house an Engineer repairing the outer hull. There are only two attached to the Independence due to it's Multi Vector Assault Mode.
Type 11 Personnel Shuttles
The Type-11 shuttle, designed by the crew of the [ma:USS Enterprise|USS Enterprise]], is a modular design that allows production, with minimal extra parts, straight from a ship's replicator system. It has a cockpit cabin which is separated from the rest of the interior and a docking port above the passenger compartment behind the cockpit. It is armed with three light phaser arrays and a pair of micro-photon launchers.
The Independence has two of these vessels produced by their own Engineering crew compliment. This was a big move in shuttlecraft design to allow starships to produce their own shuttlecraft to their desired specifications. At the moment, no major changes have been implimented on the design of the Type 11.
Type 6 Standard Shuttlecraft
The Type-6 shuttle has been a favorite of pilots from every generation since it's creation. On the Independence there are two of the favoured shttles for Away Missions of any kind. While they are not heavily armoured, the shuttles preliminary design was to be for space exploration on short trips away from their main facility or starship. The type has since ceased production in 2368 but remains a fixture in shuttlebays across the Alpha Quadrant due to its constant reliability.
StarFleet Marine Corps FA-150 Fast Attack Space Superiority Gunship (Maul)
- PRODUCTION BASE: Iwaix Fleet yards, Vulcan sector.
- RATINGS: 199 (2). See below for DITL summary.
- TYPE: Medium short range warp gunship.
- INSERVICE DATE: 2380. Successor to FA-120 series.
- ACCOMODATION: 1 pilot, 1copilot, can carry up to 8 additional marines or passengers.
- POWER PLANT: Two 22k millicochrane warp engines, twenty DeFl 9200 micro-Fusion RCS thrusters & two 10k impulse engines positioned to the far left and right of the Aft section, for optimum turning velocity.
- DIMENSIONS: Length 13m; beam 7m; height 4m.
- MASS: 9.2m tons.
- PERFORMANCE: Warp 9.4 for 36 hours.
- ARMAMENT:
- Four type XV phaser cannons;
- Two type VIII phaser emitters (stern), for a total phaser output 5,600 Terra-watts;
- Two bow-mounted Micro-Quantum torpedo launchers.
- SHIELDS: Type 10 generators capable of deflecting 2.4 x 10 to the 5th kW.
- SENSORS: Standard shuttle sensor package with "TAC-LINK" secure channel to host-starship (can accept tactical and other data from host Starship's CIC on a secure subspace short-range channel).
- SPACE FRAME: Utilizing cutting edge technology in space-frame design the FA-150 is capable of high velocity turns up to and exceeding a massive 41g without compromising the enhanced Structural Integrity Field. A Single Duranium-Tritanium Hull with a high-level SIF and 2cm of ablative armor.
- HISTORY/NOTES: Originally intended as a heavy assault version of the earlier FA-120 space superiority fighter, the FA-150 has become the lander, 'drop ship' and assault gunship of choice for the marine corps. The fleet has also commissioned many of these for planetary defense. A wing of 'Mauls' will easily handle a small capital ship without breaking a sweat, pose a capable match for a medium capital ship, and put up a good fight even against a large one. Mauls are still not as common as other tactical craft. The SFDI has also ordered them for landing operations.
- DITL STRENGTH INDICES:
- Beam Weapons: 112
- Torpedoes: 100
- Weapon Range/Accuracy: 60
- Shields: 89
- Hull/Armor: 400
- Speed: 920
- Combat Agility: 19,000
- Total Strength: 199
FA-150 R-Variant: Fast Recon Craft (Mongoose)
- PRODUCTION BASE: Iwaix Fleet yards, Vulcan sector.
- RATINGS: 127(1). See below for DITL summary.
- TYPE: Medium short range warp reconnaissance fighter.
- INSERVICE DATE: 2380.
- ACCOMODATION: 1 pilot, 1 copilot.
- POWER PLANT: Two 30k millicochrane warp engines, twenty-five DeFl 9200 micro-Fusion RCS thrusters & two 10k impulse engines positioned to the far left and right of the Aft section, for optimum turning velocity.
- DIMENSIONS: Length 13m; beam 7m; height 4m.
- MASS: 9.9m tons.
- PERFORMANCE: Warp 9.9 for 36 hours.
- ARMAMENT: One type V phaser emitter (stern) for a total phaser output 500 Terra-watts.
- SHIELDS: Type 8 generator capable of deflecting 1.9 x 10 to the 5th Kw.
- SENSORS: Crew compartment swapped out for high-performance, long range passive and active sensor package including GAD, TSS and jammers (see USS Titan specs for these sensor packages).
- SPACE FRAME: Same as the Maul, except that the Mongoose leaves off the armor standard to the former and reduces the SIF to standard levels in exchange for higher speed.
- HISTORY/NOTES: The Mongoose uses the same EM-deadening tiling and stealth systems which is used on certain capital ships such as PROMETHEUS, SOVEREIGN and NEBULA stealth destroyers. The Mongoose's function is purely to be unseen and to see everything else, not to fight.
- DITL STRENGTH INDICES:
- Beam Weapons: 10
- Torpedoes: 0
- Weapon Range/Accuracy: 60
- Shields: 70
- Hull/Armor: 50
- Speed: 1075
- Combat Agility: 19,000
- Total Strength: 127
