Tuesdays suck... this is what I do while blizzard preforms server mantinence.
Constellation class boarder monitoring station:
About the Constellation:
The Constellation is a simple sensor platform mounted with a generator and small drive system inside of a torpedo casing. The monitoring station was designed to be quickly deployed in mass numbers over a large area and to be upgraded with weapons as needed. Because of the Constellation's size it can easily be produced as needed by starships during their missions and be used by any ship capable of carrying standard sized torpedoes.
Organizations Using This Vessel: Star Army
Type: Sensor Probe
Class: Constellation
Designer: Qel'noran Fleet Systems
Manufacturer: QFS
Production:
Height: 2 feet
width: 2 feet
length: 24 feet
Appearance: The constellation uses the normal torpedo casing used by Star Army units so before deployment it looks like an ordinary torpedo.. The internal components are highly compressed and a lot of the systems are stored as bricks of raw materials. Once released the Constellation deploys, splitting along the center as the ZPE powers up the nanomachines to assemble the drive, power, and shield systems. (the sensor and computer control module is then connected to the rest of the probe) When this is finally complete the Constellation looks like a puffed piece of popcorn with four large budges coming off the main torpedo casing, three below the horizontal axis of the probe in a triangle configuration and one pointing directly upward relative to the probe.
Ship systems:
Drive System: The drive system of the Constellation is a simple vent off design using energy from the ZPE reactor to stabilize and move the station short distances. The vents studded all over the constellation only channel a small amount of energy, making it suitable for orbit keeping duties only.
Nano-paintjob: The leftover nanomachines from assembly can be used to generate any paintjob the user desires, from jet black space cammo to corporate logos and insignias.
Orbit Weapons: The Constellation is designed to use the normal Star Army weapon pods to augment its defense in case of combat.
Power System: The Constellation carries a small ZPE generator inside of its casing. This provides a vast amount of power which is used up mainly by the sensor package and shield generators of the probe.
Sensor Package: The Constellation is designed to originally use a PARADOX based system but in order to increase the ease of production and decrease size that was changed to a simple sensor pallet that includes partial, gravity, subspace mass, and scalar sensor systems.
Shield System: The Constellation projects a simple kinetic energy barrier as well as a subspace distortion field which bends space around the probe, making it harder to detect and hit from outside of the bubble. The shields are ment to only protect against small weapons.
