List of Arkanian Military Starships by Generation

Arkania has been constructing starships for much of its existence. However, before the arrival of the Armed 
Forces of Orion on Arkania Prime, Arkanians were limited to using old designs produced by an ancient Pegasus Primian Empire. However, after the arrival of the AFOU and the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Orion, Arkania would begin to construct their own starships. There have been multiple established generations of Arkanian starships, each vastly improving over the last. 
Arkanian starship production began very slowly, with a few ship classes making up Generation I. Over the next few generations, ship production would increase along with overall ship quality. 
Arkanian starship production increased drastically increased with the introduction of Generation V, due to the fledgling Second Arkanian Republic lacking a competent fleet after the defeat and subsequent collapse of the Greater Terran Republic, which it was a part of. 
== Generation I ==
=== Annihilator-class Destroyer ===
The Annihilator-class Destroyer, commissioned in 2023, was the first starship class to be independently designed by the AFOU, the PMC which would found the DRO. The Annihilator-class, constructed at a shipyard owned by The Galactic Empire (TGE), featured energy shields, seven heavy quad-laser turrets, and numerous IX-2 anti-starfighter batteries. This class was also known to feature hangar bays, which are said to have been able to hold 200 M4A or M4B starfighters.
The Annihilator-class was known to be quite lackluster in firepower and armor, however it was well shielded and could take hits from plasma weaponry, which was in extensive use at the time. It was also well-defended, with many anti-starfighter batteries scattered around the ship. The Annilhilator-class was silently decommissioned during Generation II and some were used as testing for new weapons systems.
=== Destroyer-class Heavy Cruiser ===
The confusingly-named Destroyer-class Heavy Cruiser, also commissioned in 2023, was the second class of starship to be designed by the AFOU. The Destroyer-class, also incorrectly classified a heavy cruiser, was smaller than the Annihilator-class. As a heavy cruiser, it should have been larger than the Annihilator-class. The Destroyer-class featured heavy energy shielding, six heavy dual turbolaser turrets, and four heavy laser beam emplacements. This class also had 400 IX-2 emplacements scattered around the hull. It did not have a fighter compliment.
The Destroyer-class was, like the Annihilator, a well-shielded and protected ship. They did not receive sufficient armor plating, also like the Annihilator. Due to the usage of plasma turbolasers, the main guns had a low firing velocity compared to railguns. Because of the lack of a fighter compliment, these ships could not operate on their own. These ships lacked main armament on their underside and had a very exposed bridge. The Destroyer-class Heavy Cruisers were decommissioned alongside the Annihilator-class.
=== Class-1 Carrier ===
The Class-1 Carrier was a carrier class commissioned later in 2023. These carriers were small and more like transport ships than true starfighter carriers. This class had a large hangar bay near the midsection and was armed with one main dual ion cannon. It was protected with 90 EX-2s and like the other first-generation ships, was well-shielded. This class was the smallest of Generation I. 
The Class-1 Carrier was a well-suited starship for transportation of goods and military equipment and not as a fronline carrier due to its small size and relatively low fighter compliment. This ship had a lack of devasating weaponry, as it used an ion cannon as its primary armament. It was, however, well-protected by its IX-2s. Like the Destroyer-class, it had no primary armament on the underside and had an over-exposed bridge. These ships remained in service after the other Generation I ships were decommissioned as cargo transports, but were later put out of service when Generation IV began.
=== Navis Lumine-class Cruiser ===
The Navis Lumine-class Cruiser, incorrectly translated from Latin into "Light Ship" (light as in a lightbulb, not the weight "light"), was the final class of ship to be considered as a Generation I ship. This class was also the only ship class of Gen I to be designed after the foundation of the DRO. The cruiser was known to be lightly-armored but heavily-shielded. The Lumine-class had four main turbolaser batteries situated around the superstructure and anti-starfighter turrets scattered around the hull. It had no primary armament on its underside. It lacked hangar bays and as such, a starfighter compliment.
The Navis Lumine-class was a strange starship of Generation I. Its design differed from the others, incorporating a style seen on TGE ships. As such, it had the most overexposed bridge of Gen I and was dagger-shaped. This starship was not as well-protected by anti-starfighter emplacements and had generally lighter armor. Like most other ships of Generation I, the Lumine-class lacked any primary armaments on the underside. The Navis Lumine-class would be decommissioned along with two of the Gen I ships.
== Generation II ==
=== Azanti-class Carrier ===
The Azanti-class Carrier was the first ship of Generation II. It featured a new design doctrine from the Gen I ships and had features noticeable on most Generation II starships. These included no large-caliber primary armament, only many turrets which have point-defense weaponry-like guns and the continued use of plasma weaponry. Generation II ships were generally smaller as well. The Azanti-class had seven hangar bays for fighters and other small craft, though they were very small, at five meters tall and ten meters wide. 
The Azanti-class Carrier was considered a breakthrough in Arkanian starship design, hence its introduction marking the beginning of Generation II. The Azanti-class was well-protected by shields and armor along with its armaments, however it lacked large anti-capital ship guns and as such would not perform well against large starships. The Azanti-class Carrier would be decommissioned with the introduction of the Azanti II-class Carrier in 2033.
=== Class-1 Corvette ===
The Class-1 Corvette was the second and smallest starship of Generation II. It was armed with multiple point-defense cannon-like turrets due to it being a dedicated anti-starfighter warship. The Class-1 Corvette was a fairly fast starship. It was well-shielded but lacked sufficient armor plating. The corvettes also served as escort starships for larger ships.
The Class-1 Corvette was a well-suited ship for the roles it played. It was designed for hunting down starfighters and protecting allied capital ships. It was fairly well-protected by energy shielding but lacked any strong armor plating. Like the Azanti, the Class-1 featured no large-caliber weaponry. The Class-1 Corvette was decommissioned in 2034 by the Greater Terran Republic but was recommissioned for a brief period of time during the Second Hyberian War.
=== Harrower-class Battlecruiser ===
The Harrower-class Battlecruiser was the largest starship to be designed during Generation II and served as the mainline capital ship for the DRO and the AFOP, where they were also exported to. However, it did not carry large weapons like other capital ships of the time. The Harrower-class was also smaller than most other capital ships. It had frontal hangar bays which were known to carry many starfighters. The Harrower-class featured heavy armor plating along with heavy shielding, making it one of the most protected ships Arkania produced during that era.
The Harrower-class Battlecruiser was a good capital ship for what Arkania needed at the time. It, however lacked any powerful anti-starship weapons and as such could not go toe-to-toe with other large warships of the time. The Harrower-class was well-armored and well-shielded, while having excellent defensive capabilities against starfighters. The Harrower-class Battlecruisers were decommissioned in 2033 by the Free Republic of Arkania upon the introduction of the Resurgence-class Battlecruisers. However, they were briefly recommissioned in 2034 by the Greater Terran Republic during the Second Hyberian War. 
=== Immobilizer-class Interdictor ===
The Immobilizer-class Interdictor was perhaps one of the most unique starship classes of Generation II. The Immobilzer-class featured four large gravity well projectors which were able to simulate a planet's gravity, pulling an enemy starship from warp and preventing it from going into warp again. The Immobilizer-class had fairly light armor but like the other ships of Generation II, had adequate shielding. It was less well-protected by point-defense cannons as the four gravity well projectors needed lots of the ship's energy to remain functional. 
The Immobilizer-class Interdictor was a decent ship for the roles it played. It was well-shielded, lightly armored and could rip starships from warp while also preventing them from escape via warp. The Immobilzer-class had decent defense from enemy starfighters, but like the other ships of Generation II, lacked any large-caliber weaponry. The Immobilzer-class was also expensive to operate and maintain, leading to their eventual decommissioning by the Greater Terran Republic in 2034. 
=== Tarkin II-class Cruiser ===
The Tarkin II-class Cruiser was designed from the TGE-era Tarkin Cruiser Mk. 2. This redesign featured updated weaponry, engines, command bridge and other things. The Tarkin II-class had heavier armor than most other Generation II starships while also retaining the same amount of shielding. They were not as well-protected by the standard turrets at the time, now classified as the Type-10 Single-Barrel Rotary Point-Defense Cannon. As a cruiser, they were fairly quick and agile for their size, though they were slower.
The Tarkin II-class Cruiser was one of the most unsuccessful cruiser designs of Generation II. They were slower than the other cruisers and had less protection than the others. They were also larger and less agile than its counterparts and had one of the most exposed bridges of Generation II starships. The Tarkin II-class was plagued by reliability issues, with some examples having malfunctioning engines and sensory systems shutting down. As such, the Tarkin II-class Cruiser was not a very popular cruiser among Arkanian crew and they were decommissioned in 2032 by the Free Republic of Arkania.
=== Siegfried-class Cruiser ===
The Siegfried-class Cruiser was developed after multiple design flaws were noticed with the Tarkin II-class. This design featured a more effective hull design which had almost 360-degree firing arcs. The Siegfried-class featured a much less exposed command bridge than the Tarkin II and was one of the most well-armed Arkanian ships of the time. The Siegfried-class was a heavily-shielded starship and was extremely well-protected by its armament. They were very fast and maneuverable, making them effective at their roles. The Siegfried-class also featured hangar bays which could accommodate a small fighter compliment.
The Siegfried-class Cruiser, contrary to the earlier Tarkin II-class, was one of the most successful designs of Generation II. They were very well-armed compared to other Arkanian ships of the time and has a much less exposed bridge than the earlier cruiser class. The Siegfried-class Cruisers were very reliable and saw extensive use with many Arkanian fleets. The Siegfried-class would be decommissioned in 2034 by the Greater Terran Republic but were briefly recommissioned later that year to fight in the Second Hyberian War. A redesigned version of the Siegfried-class, the Siegfried II-class Destroyer, is in service with Arkania today.
=== CR-40 Transport Frigate ===
The CR-40 Transport Frigate was a small transport starship which could accommodate cargo or troops depending on the variant. The CR-40 had two variants, the standard CR-40 troop transport and the CR-40C, which carried cargo. The CR-40, due to being a transport ship, was lightly armed and was not designed to be a frontline combat ship. The CR-40 also had hangar bays which could accommodate two fighters. The CR-40 had a relatively large capacity for its size and was well-shielded. They were an agile class which made them a good transport.
The CR-40 was a successful transport starship and one of the most well-designed starships of Generation II. Both variants of the CR-40 served their roles well and were in widespread use in Arkania by the military and civilian corporations. The CR-40s were well-shielded and could defend against a few enemy fighters, which it was most likely to encounter. It also had two starfighters in hangar bays for increased defense. The CR-40 and CR-40C were officially decommissioned by the Greater Terran Republic in 2034, but both variants were still used as transports by many companies. In 2037, the Gewurz Civilian Space Military in collaboration with Arkanian engineers procured a redesigned CR-40, which was smaller, had updated weapons systems and could enter the Martian atmosphere. This redesigned CR-40 would be called the CR-O "Omega".
