Horizon-Class Republic Fleet Carrier Name • Horizon-class Classification • Ship Origin • Kuat Drive Yards Specifications Size • How big is this thing? Give rough estimates in metric measurements (meters) - Height: 120m - Width: 310m - Length: 650m Appearance • The Horizon's most striking visual features are its large forward facing hanger entrances beyond which the hull slowly curves outward before running straight back to the rear of the ship. The Horizon is powered by two large engines mounted in bulbous bulges on either side of the ship and an additional five smaller engines mounted in the rear of the hull. Internally the ships start as four decks at the nose before eventually expanding to seven decks as the ship moves along towards the engines at the rear. The larger hanger and launch bay take up nearly a third of the total area of decks four and five while a starfighter repair bay takes up a similar amount of space on decks six and seven. The entirety of decks two and three, as well as the remaining space of deck four, are dedicated to the crew accommodations. The remainder of decks five through seven are used primarily for engineering and cargo storage. Deck one consists of a long command module running along the spine of the ship until spreading out into Officer accommodations. The ship's weapons complement is made of a blistering area of light defensive weapons primarily mounted on the ships dorsal and ventral surfaces. These weapons include four pairs of twin light turbo laser turrets mounted on the ship's dorsal surface with a matching set on the ship's bottom, these turrets are supported by a pair of triple medium turbolaser turrets one mounted above and below the midship, and a pair of dorsally mounted twenty tube vertical launch assault missile launchers for the carriers defense against warships. Its primary defense against starfighters is in the form of forty-six quad medium laser cannon turrets most of which are mounted in pairs along the dorsal or ventral surface of the ship with five mounted on each port and starboard side of the ship. This is supported by four forty tube concussion missile launcher turrets one mounted forward and one rear on the dorsal surface with an additionally matching pair on the ships ventral surface. Function Capable of carrying nearly a hundred and sixty spacecraft the Horizon class if a massive carrier ship more than capable of protecting itself from small ships that might break through a fleet's defensive screen though if the line is broken the lumbering ship is at risk of being prey to destroyer packs.
