Shadow-Class Corvette

General Information
The Shadow-Class Corvette was a Corvette class warship used by the Syca Empire. It was the most numerous warship in use by the empire by the battle of Rann.

Characteristics
The Shadow-Class Corvettes were 220 meters long, 72 meters wide, and 27 meters high. The Design for the Shadow was born from the Imperial Navy's need for a small, fast and easy to produce ship that could fill the roles of patrol and fighter screening, as well as covert deployment of special forces.

Roles
While not technically designed for ship-to-ship combat, the Shadow still functions in this role fairly well, utilizing its superior speed and maneuverability to strike weak points on enemy ships.

Offensive and Defensive Systems
The Shadow Class is armed with a small, yet potent armament consisting of 6 500mm EMA turrets against capital ships, 12 rapid-fire Sentinel 70mm turrets for fighter defense, 8 Lancer Multi-purpose missile pods and 4 Hammer nuclear fusion warheads. While weak individually, a squadron of Shadows are a force to be reckoned with.
