TSS Itan-sha

## History

### Overview

The TSS-Itan-sha was a Necropolis Class Battlecruiser that served as Takota's personal flagship and the new headquarters to the T.S.B (Trussian Security Bureau) Divison **"A"** "**The Royal** **Aquisition Abteilung"**. The vessel was ordered for construvtion following the damage to Takotas old flag ship the TSS-Blue Flame a Capitol Class Battle Cruiser. The Blue Flame was heavily damged during the ***War of Trussian Succession (October 23, 67,967-December 13, 67,968)*** during the battle of the malstar system. Following the war the Blue Flame was quickly repaired then quicly redeployed just as the outbreak of the ***War of Trussian Aquisition (January 19, 67,969-February 67, 67,969)*** had begin. Following this was the TSS Blue Flame's haul was compromised and half of the vessels armaments were unusable. Under the vessels remaining power is was able to make it to Trussian Prime before the the ships reactors went critical. Once dry docked the Blue Flame was scheduled to be repaired within 16 months but the damage to the hual and the main power systems were worse then expected. Following this news the ship was officially decomission from naval service and would be gutted and planeted as a orbital museum to the wars. Takota and his Command Staff quickly replaced the vessel with the *USS Insurrection* a sovereign class starship build by Starfleet for Trussian Military use. The Vessel was reassigned a few months later as Stafleet under terms the **United Friendship Treaty** between Trussian and Starfleet, Trussia was unable to crew of refit the ship to its needed specifications. Around this same time Trussian Grand Admiral Leviticus Coran and Vice Admiral Jason Carithian had designed a new class of naval vessel. Once the design was approved by the Military High Command the first of 6 vessels were comissioned with an additional of 15 orded would be built and deployed.

### Construction

The TSS Itan-sha would be the first of its new class and would be built in the Talrada System in Talrada Primes orbital shipyard Valhalla. The Talrada System was a none mapped star cluster under direct control and the Royal Family and the T.S.B. Given its seclusion the Itan-sha would be given the upmost importance and given extensive features unlike its sister ships. Once fully built and commissioned it was given the hull number 001 to signify the first of its class. Currently the Vessel is the main transportation of Takota and his family when off world or on official business. The Hull of the Itan-sha used Fire-Core Alloy which in the Trussian Galaxy the purest refined metal that has ever existed. The entire hull of the vessel from every point in constructed of this alloy. So in theory if the Itan-sha's shields were to completely fail the vessel could take damage to the hull itself and it would not be compormised. But Grand Admiral Leviticus Coran not satisfied with this would add additional deck armor plating to protect the vessels most vital systems. While Jason Carithian would modify the ships size to accomodate this.

### Powerplant

The Tss-Itan-Sha was powered by Two Star Core Reactors, 6 Hyper Matter Fusion Reactors, 12 Hydrogen Turbines, 2 Solar Fusion Reactors, and 12 Point Grid Auxilary Reactors. Overall the Itan-sha had more power systems then it needed as only on Starcore reactor would be needed to power the ship fully. Although given the unpredictablity of space travel the powerplants offered an advantage in worse case scenarios. While also giving additiona power to weapon and life support systems the Itan-sha in theory could overwehlm any enemy ship just buy its power output alone. The Itan-sha had an upgraded Hyper-drive rated and 0.999 which can give the Itan-sha and range of nealy 700,000 lightyears as compared to the Capitol and Phoenix Classes which are both rated at 300,000 light years.

### Dimensions

The Itan-sha was an overall length of 4,110 Meters with a width of 850 meters.  Overall it is numerically in the middle in terms of legth compared to other Trussian Battlecruisers. Two previous classes tsill in use and being built is the Capitol Class with a legth of 4,000 meters with a width of 750 meters while a Phoenix Class Battlecruiser is 5,000 Meters by 1,000 meters. The major difference is the powerplant and weapon systems have been upgraded along with new test systems that can be added to future ship designs.

### Design

The Necropolis Class Battlecruiser along with its predecessors the Capitol and Phoenix Classes were all based on the Venator Class Star Destroyer. The Venator Class Star Destroyer was orginally desgin, used, and fielded by the Galactic Republic. Trussian during the closing years of the 700 Years War bought the design and built numerous Venators many of which are still in service today in the Trussian Fleet. It  was adopted and modified due to Trussian Naval Doctrine states it must Adapt and Overcome in order to declare victory in any scenario. Given this fact, many of Trussias larger capitol ships could adapt as the mission needed it to and the Itan-sha can operate as a mobile headwuaters, battleship, starfighter carrier, or troop transport

### Weapon Systems

The Itan-sha used a majority of laser, energy, and ordinace based weapons systems as projectiles were deemed to be impratical.

Overall the Itan Shal is equiped with the following weapon systems, given it be classified as a battle cruised the entire hull was to be covered in multiple weap systems for optimal defense and offensive capabilities.

* 2,800 Heavy Laser Cannons
* 950 Medium Laser Canons
* 700 Short Range Laser Cannons (Can be used as point defense)
* 550 Point Defense Laser Cannons
* 325 Missile Batteries. (50 can be added under refit)
* 75 Torpedo Tubes. (The Itan-sha Torpedos are capable of Hyper-Space travel to a pre-programed target.)
* 2 Fusion Reactor Seige Cannons
* 6 Matter Disintegration Cannons
* 12 Phaser Arrays
* 35 Ion Cannons
* 125 Broadside Cannons
* 2,000 Starfighters Standard.

### Test Systems

Given the Itan-sha is Takotas personal flag ship it would have a few features exclusive for only the Emperor could use. One of these new test systems is the Trans-Dimensional-Star-Drive. Orginally a joint venture by Trussian and Tri-on Scientists this system could propel a star ship not just trhough the vaccum of space but to the space in alternate dimensions. This technology came into existence due to the advancement of interdiction technology by the Corpus Federation. Trussia became extremely concerned when the Corpus Federation started to advance in technology as they had more capabilites to pull Trussian ships out of hyper-space or keeping them from FTL travel. Given Trussia was lacking heavily in this field and anything the ycould be adapted would take to long to fit on their ships. This changed as Trussian and Tri-on Scientist found the ability to travel in a trans-dimension capability. Given this was more aligned to what they could create scientifically in reaction to the Corpus Federations advancement in technology.
