Ddraig-class

The Ddraig-Class Battle Cruiser is a highly advanced warship deployed by MercDragon. Armed with many of the most sophisticated weapon systems in the known universe, this ship has demonstrated superior survivability and firepower to nearly every known ship it its weight class.
== Description ==
Designed by Nosajimiki, the Ddraig-Class was designed during the final days of the MercDragon/Vaygr war as a direct counter-ship to the larger Despoiler-class battleships.
Despite the collapse of Vaygr, Merc Dragon continued to mass produce these ships in preparation of their enemy's anticipated return and to help fill the void of power left by the similar collapse of Thryn and FCM forces in the LvD cluster.
== History ==
By early 2317, MercDragon fleets were fighting constantly. While equipped with advanced ships, the constant battles against the Vaygyr Empire were pushing the logistic capabilities to its limits and losses began to mount. Deployment of heavy warships was costly and a solution had to be found.
Admiral Nosajimiki saw the need for a ship capable of serving as a multi-role plataform, a line cruiser, that could be quickly manufactured and carry advanced technology.
With his direct control and input over the project, the Engineering Corp. were able to create the Ddraig-Class Light Cruiser.
Using modular concepts, the hull and systems were made to be easily fabricated and assembled by any kind of factory complex. Following the "Effectiveness over Form" philosophy, the simplicity of the Ddraig design makes it easy to refit and repair its components. The heavy use of automated systems eliminate the need for big crews, cutting the necessary manpower by more than half.
== Usage ==
Designed as a multi-role vessel, the Ddraig can be configured to take on any role. The most common tasks are:
* Fleet Support
* Exploration Vessel
* Long Range Missile Cruiser
