Enforcer-class (TRI)

The Enforcer-class is a class of up-armoured destroyers based on the Eris-class, designed by Mr Crazy and previously operated by Trident Foundries.
== Description ==
Enforcer-class vessels outwardly resemble the older Eris-class, however the Enforcer has had many changes to its external armour plating and turret complement that make it more suited to the role of assault destroyer. It was the first Trident warship class to utilise the newer TRT Plasma Railgun turrets and was also a testbed for retroactively putting Generation 2 armour plating (such as that used on the Crusader, Lucia, etc) onto older ship hulls to bring them to a modern standard.
The Enforcer benefited massively from proven technology installed on the Eris, including power insulators and polarized hull plating.
== History ==
=== 2317 ===
In early January 2317, Jake Lancia insisted that Crazy refit an Eris-class Destroyer with modern armour plating after comparing it to the recently completed Lucia-class Light Destroyer. Crazy reluctantly agreed, and turned out the new ship in a few hours.
When the Plasma Railgun turrets were being designed, Jake insisted on them being field tested on the retrofitted Eris that Crazy turned out, so Crazy quickly jury-rigged four new mount points and mounted the new turrets on. The new guns performed admirably, so they stayed attached.
In early March, the new name of Enforcer was decided and final system checks had been completed, and Jake officially added the class into the Trident fleet. The class prototype had been constructed and readied in the LCB Galaxies shortly afterwards, in addition to a second vessel of the class.
=== 2318 ===
The Enforcer-class was phased out of the Trident fleet following a major review and shake-up of Trident ship classes in early January, and blueprints of the vessel are being sold via the StarMade Dock public marketplace.
== Usage ==
The Enforcer-class has, in addition to its primary role as an assault destroyer, been used in the following roles:
* Command ship
* Siege vessel
