#STAR WARS REPUBLIC LIGHT CRUISER MAC#

Wartime refits conducted in 2530 upgraded the MAC to a Mark III Heavy Coil system and increased the total number of railgun batteries and missile pods to 30 and 48 respectively, also increasing the ship's PDC compliment to 100, granting increased coverage. The Nu-class shuttle was used mainly for transport, and not for battle, which gave it different characteristics than military vessels such as cruisers and gunships. It transported two kinds of people: clone troopers and Republic officials. Defensive measures include 200 centimeters of Titanium-A battleplate, electromagnetic reactive armor, and an electronic countermeasure suite. The Nu-class attack shuttle, or a Republic attack shuttle, was a type of transport used by the Republic during the Clone Wars. Secondary weapon systems include 20 14-inch/45В caliber railgun batteries, 26 anti-ship missile pods, 8 nuclear missiles, and 75 Butress point-defense cannons.

The primary armament of the Halcyon-class is single a Mark III Light Coil Magnetic Accelerator Cannon. The class was also equipped with a Kawanishi Engineering SED-2550X Shaw-Fujikawa Translight EngineВ forВ faster-than-light travel. This configuration provided only 10% of modern engine output as of 2552.

Shipboard power is provided by a fusion reactor, with six impulse drives for sublight propulsion.В The main engine assembly consists of four underpowered C2H reactors, two primary RT-5 series impulse drives and four secondary N1 series impulse drives. The class is well known for its durability, despite suffering from poor acceleration and maneuverability, a Halcyon-class can remain combat effective, even in the event of losing 90% of its armor plating. An Omega-patternВ bridge moduleВ is slung underneath one of the forward sections and eight launch bays are located on the port and starboard flanks. Halcyon-class cruisers are 1,170 meters (3,838.5 feet) in length, with a superstructure composed of five hexagonal and octagonal sections mounted onto each other.
