project gorgon was a radical plan enacted after the initial fighting on planet P

while the bug ships are slower they have a far superior armament as well as superior fleet communications. coupled with the bugs unlimited resources and total war mentality (bugs dont take lunch breaks)
this project would enlist the aid of every single ship building plant on earth and several of her colonies. many of these companies were provided with top secret technologies and unlimited power to use these technologies. this was what made the plan controversial as the companies were allowed to keep these technologies post war. Thankfully the war had rallied humanity against a common threat. these companies produced several top of the line warships that contributed to the war effort significantly

Toyama Maru Class Ship- created by "industrial asia" the same company responsible for the hugely successful Ryuho class dreadnought this small ship is incredibly versatile. The main strength of this ship is that it can quickly redirect a large portion of its energy to seriously increase firepower. this overheats the weapons and actually leaves the weapons unusable for a short period of time. what could be called a second "strength" is the fact that the ship will on occasion have an incredibly violent explosion takeing enemy ships with it (subject to change)

Hammerhead class Ship- The producer of this ship was an Australian owned company called "Frontier Forever." This company had only ever been known to create ships with none combat roles. including the refit of several star class ships intocargo carriers. They are also responsible for the creation of small fuel carrier ships that gained a bad reputation after the battle of klendathu for not doing there part during the battle. The hammerhead class ship while barely more than a corvette has proven itself in battle since its creation. saveing the reputations of frontier forever. the ships design is similar to that of an older model of scientific scout vessels that were used to scout planets for habitability the most notable of these ships standing memorial on tesca nemrousa (zegima beach) for founding one of the most succesful earth colonies that is before the planet was captured by bugs. the hammerhead type ships primary armament consists of newly created smart missiles that home in on several bug features including sound smell visual thermal and electrical. to put it in simple terms these missile can only ever hit bugs under any circumstances (ineffective ship against skinnies) the ship also has a decent point laser defense system. the ship is also incredibly maneuverable for a ship its size and weight. the ship is heavier than most vessels it size because it has heavy duratanium (subject to change) metal frame. when the ship itself is destroyed it will sometimes actually leave the frame intact.

thats what i have boss. its all subject to change over time
i feel that alot of it needs to be tweaked
please feel free to tell me anything wrong with what i have written boss
and i will gladly change it


ugg i feel i made the ships to special and not basic enough
this is going to need a major rewrite
