Ironwing Class Mobile Shipyard

A modern Ithreb class cruiser costs around 130 million Solidi. As the planned economical system of the Akhinnae Empire does not take kindly to vessels of that size being unnecessarily squandered, Fleet Operations commissioned an even more expensive vessel. With a towering 202 million Solidi production costs, the Ironwing class mobile fleet yard is about as expensive as a Nuntia class base carrier.

The Ironwing class is a massive, jump-capable frame that comes with production and repair facilities that can even accommodate battleships. Eight Springseed class drones and four repair arms will work in tandem with the massive repair crews of the mobile yard while the crew of the ship that is being repaired can get some R&R in the guest quarters of the yard. The Ironwing has a large SRC refueling station and comes with short range crew transport ships and materiel courier ships.
Although the Ironwing class features a defence turret grid as well as heavy armour and a flare system, she is designed to operate away from battlelines, typically near jump gates or in the orbit of a planet.
It has been estimated that even one of these mobile yards could reduce the costs of the Imperial Fleet in an armed conflict by roughly half.



Named after the famed Hekhana I. that ruled over the Empire during the “Century of Stability”, Imperial Fleet has commissioned 20 of these modern battleships. They often work in task forces with Ithreb class heavy cruisers and Licoran class battlecruisers.



This ship comes with the awesome crane control script by Tekk

“Akhi.. Hakhu… what the heck?!”
Akhinnae – it’s my own world, with lore, language, history – I am a nerd, you know?
“DLC split the community, why do you use them here?”
I understand the argument, but I do not agree with it. I use the DLC because the give me the vanilla possibilities to use decorative freedom that I would otherwise not have. You are free to use the item without the DLC and I will not change my old worlds and blueprints so they can still be used without DLC. For new content, however, I chose to use all available DLC.
!!I will publish ALL my blueprints in world files that do not need the DLC at some point!!
