CC Star Defender: Strident
The Star Defender project was an initiative proposed by the New Republic to encourage allied ship manufactures to produce massive warships capable of dealing with several large threats at once. The concept was devised out of years of battling the Empire and constantly having to engage Star Destroyer class ships. While frigates and cruisers were advantageous to most roles and missions, battle against a single Star Destroyer could render an entire fleet in need of repair. The Star Defender initiative was to have key shipyard worlds produce a vessel that could defend from attack and be used to spearhead invasions into enemy strongholds. The concept stemmed from the success of the Kuat Mandator line of warships.
The Strident, one of 3 available for the mod was Corellia's answer to this proposal. The ship was designed specifically to fulfill 2 roles, defense of orbital structures, or spearheading assaults. With most weaponry located on the dorsal side, the Strident-Class was often seen hovering over Corellia's shipyards as a protective shield. With its unique sloped wedge design, the majority of long-range dual heavy turbos can be seen facing frontward with convenient placement for covering side archs, allowing the ship to effectively incapacitate enemy defenses while launching out of hyperspace with a supporting invasion fleet.
Notable ship features include the large repair/fighter bay, capable of performing mid-battle passive repair and launching corvettes, dual heavy ion turrets located in the rear flanks, a deadly row of 8 dual heavy turbo laser turrets located on each side for anything that survives an initial assault, a multi-warhead rocket launch system for devastating broadsides and 8 forward facing torpedo launchers located in the superstructure wings towards the back to the ship.

awesome
never thought of it as this big though..
did you scale it larger than most mods on purpose or cannon?
Some sources stated it as 6000 m. I thought this was too big since the several strident-class ships were made and the entire Star Defender project was abandoned after the Vong War due to maintenance costs. The ship is about 2800 m approximately, later I can find the actual scale size value.
great!
This mod could blow everything out of the water given the time and dedication all the way through; the quality is superb model wise, I hope the future textures don't let it down. again great work, keep it up!!!
Warb never stop surprising me! So viscount was the MC answer to the star defender question and this is corellia's one... Will mandator MK 3 be Kuat's response?
Exactly, also expect a nice little surprise from Sullust..."The Forge"
;)
Sullust!! Will it come soon? we haven't seen sullustians since that bomber a long time ago... Nice ;)
The strident: a heavy hitting assault ship
The mediator: a tank with great firepower
The forge...a heavy carrier or long range weapon ship?
It's like every corporation and faction is wheeling out an SSD to fight the Vong...
Right like if every one fitted in a great ship their own technology and war philosophy
One of the aims of this mod is to accurately portray the trends and ideas of the different factions :)
you should respect my authority
Great!
Has always been one of my favourite ships, love to see it in your mod aswell.
