Horus-class frigate

The Horus-class all-purpose heavy frigate, also known by its development name GA New Advanced Frigate (GANAF), is a class of frigate currently under development. It is meant to replace the Thor-class main battle frigate in the Terran Navy. It is developed by General Appliances. Production is scheduled to begin in 2725.
The ship marks a significant departure from previous Terran doctrine. The aim is for the Horus to effectively replace not only the Thor, but also the other classes of ships used alongside it. It has much higher point defence capabilities than its predecessor making a dedicated escort redundant. It is also significantly larger than its predecessors, its volume being 2.5x the Thor's. As such, it is effectively meant to make all Terran frigate and corvette classes obsolete. The Navy has already ordered 4800 ships of the class. 
The Horus-class is remarkable for its sheer electric output for such a small ship. This allows it to have some of the best shielding of any ship of its size, as well as a very large number of weapons. Whilst it retains the two main missile batteries of the Thor, it adds onto them by having a central coilgun running in the middle of the ship, which is meant to be its primary source of damage against capital ships. Additionally, its two Willbreaker-type kinetic dual-turrets were up until the Horus' conception exclusively fitted onto destroyers and other larger vessels. It also packs four anti-capital and four point defence energy weapons, which the Thor lacked altogether. Its top FTL speed, albeit significantly higher than its cruise speed, surpasses by far that of any military ship currently in service.
