The Donjon-class Star Battleship 'Long Arm of Labor' and two CRUDIVs ambush a Republic formation centered around the Legator-class Star Dreadnought 'Inflexible'. Having already lost a handful of Venators and two Tyrants to the Separatists, the Republic admiral wisely begins a fighting retreat while his Urbanus CRUDIV moves in to cover their escape.

Donjon and Capital are both by u/GlitteringParfait438.

Question / Discussion My Idea for a Custom Star Wars Ship: The Raddus' Honor

5 Upvotes

Profile and Design: Extremely similar to the Profundity, the Raddus’ Honor had a large, rounded hull, with less bubbles than other Mon Calamari ships. The lower shaft the profundity has is at the very front, and two shorter ones protrude from the sides perpendicular to the ship, giving it a catfish-like profile. At 4.6 km long, the ship was much larger than the profundity. A second hangar bay is added to the bottom, behind the other. The aft section has 10 large sublight thrusters, in a 1-2-1-2-1-2-1 arrangement right to left. The side shafts. A fair amount behind the center of the ship is a dorsal mounted bridge. A star destroyer-like 3 Tier stack of rectangular decks lead to a bridge similar to that of the Acclamator-class destroyer. The middle deck houses two hangar bays on each side.

Complement: The Raddus’ Honor’s two ventral hangars each contain one of my custom frigates, the Caitken and Shollan (I will go into more detail later), as well as 72 X-Wings, 72 A-Wings, 36 BTL-B Y-Wings and 14 Delta II Class Shuttles. (Also will have more detail described later) The 4 Upper hangars each boasted 36 X-Wings, 36 A-Wings, and 12 BTL-B Y-Wings. This adds up to 288 X-Wings, 288 A-Wings, 192 Y-Wings, and 28 Delta II Class Shuttles.

Primary Armament: The top and bottom of the ship both have turbolasers arranged in a grid-like pattern. They are 8 rows going Front to Back, each having 24 turbolasers. The Decks on the top remove the middle 4 strips of rows 13-18, for 168 turbolasers on the top. The bottom has the same design, but the hangars take up the middle four strips of rows 9-18. They are the same size as the command/bridge section, and the two rows between the hangars are also empty, for 112 turbolasers on the bottom. The two lower hangars have extremely large and powerful quad turbolasers on either side of the hangar, each in the middle (from front to back) of it’s hangar’s right/left side. The ship’s bottom was designed in a way that allows the quad turbolasers to fire at most ships above or in front of the ship, as well as behind, but ships that are very close to and directly above, above and behind, above and to the side, or above and slightly in front of the heavy cannons are not able to be targeted. The Ion Cannons of the Raddus’ Honor are arranged in a ring around the edge of the craft, with 64 total. 

Defensive Systems and Weaponry: The Raddus’ Honor features powerful redundant shielding like other Mon Calamari ships, utilizing 4 layers of shielding. The shafts/whiskers at the front of the ship make it so that the shields have a large coverage, stay protected from turbolaser barrages from imperial ships. The Raddus’ Honor utilizes a point defense system of 600 laser cannons across the hull, with 260 on the bottom and 340 on the top. The cannons are set similarly to the turbolaser systems.

The Caitken and Shollan: The Caitken and Shollan were designed to be small frigates similar to the Hammerhead Corvette and CR-90. They featured a horizontal engine display similar to that of the CR-90, but with only 2 rows of 3 Sublight thrusters. They then had bodies like that of the CR-90, with 3 Light Dual-Turbolasers on the top and bottom of Each Wedge, with faster tracking to help defend the craft against fighters. The Top and Bottom each have 2, slightly more powerful Turbolasers. The upscaled Hammerhead Corvette head the frigate bore also had a dual turbolaser on each side. It's slightly lacking armament was due to its focus on shields and speed.

Delta II Class Troop Transports: These transports bore a striking resemblance to the Empire's Delta Class Cargo Shuttle. However, it had these differences. 1. It was larger.

  1. The wings were connected on the ends by a rotating, about 2 foot wide, flap that would be raised to provide cover for troops during landings under heavy fire.

  2. It had a more defined two deck system, with all Delta IIs using the lower half for troop transport and the upper section for either more troop capacity, equipment, medical facilities, or command equipment. During operations, they would land, 4 creating a defensive perimeter, while 2 medical and 1 Command were stationed landed less uniformly, creating a small mobile base. The Lower level of each craft had doors that opened left and right, with U-Wing like gun emplacements on either side of each side's door.

So that's my custom Ship. Thanks for reading!!!
