Defiant-class Frigate

== Overview ==
The Defiant-class Frigate is a class of frigate operated by the Arkanian Imperial Navy. It is currently the second smallest starship currently in service with the Navy (excluding fighters and similar ships). It is a fast and agile starship capable of protecting larger ships from starfighters and support fleets.
== Design and Features ==
=== Design ===
The Defiant-class was designed on speed and maneuverability as well as the heaviest armaments a ship of its size could contain. This starship will escort larger ships and will have an anti-starfighter role in space combat.
=== Armaments ===
Although it has the lightest armament of any Arkanian starship, it can still perform its role successfully. Its point-defense cannons and missile batteries along with its speed and maneuverability can take on enemy fighters while its two TR-50 Secondary Railguns can help take on enemy starships.
