The *Arclight* is a Spearhead-Class Deep Space Cruiser used by the Wreckers and the Star Fleet.

## Description

The *Arclight* is silver and orange Spearhead-Class Deep Space Cruiser, and can hold around 200 bots, with at least a pilot and navigator needed to fly the ship. It's equipped with quantum engines that allow it to enter hyperspace for faster travel times and some weapons mounted on the side for defense, and features a bridge, crew quarters, a cargo bay, a medibay, four hangers, a server room, and three observation decks in one room. The ship has at least four levels, traversable by elavator, with the medibay near the top, the crew quarters two levels below and the engine bay at the bottom. Back when the ship was an Interceptor, it had over 100 weapons in it's arsenal.

## History

The *Arclight* was built around the time of the Combatron War, and was used by the eighth iteration of the Wreckers. It was presumably the ship used when they fought the Predators on Caldoon 4.

At some point after t war, the Senate would convert the *Arclight* for civilian use, removing most of its weapons to turn the interceptor into a cruiser and wiping the navicomp and databanks. This fact was covered up when it was decided to have the *Arclight* be used by the Star Fleet for a one-way deep space colonization mission, and it was assumed by it's 196 bot crew that the Senate just had the ship built it from scratch. The refitting wasn't fully complete upon launch, as Autopilot would find one room still in the process of being turned into a bar, and he finished the process to create The Lone Pilot. The signature and ID of the *Arclight* remained unchanged, leading the Predators to attack the ship under the belief that it was still being used by the Wreckers. The maintenance records were also kept, allowing, Spiral and GATTAI to discover that the ship had it's weapons downgraded.

Soon after leaving Temptoria for the Detriex Cluster, all contact with the *Arclight* and its crew was lost, its status unknown.
