British City Class Spaceplane

Design Date: 2276

First Example Laid Down: 2278
First Example Completed: 2279
Fleets in Service: Britain
Number in Service: 67 in UK service, named after Commonwealth cities

The City is a essentially a smaller version of the Wessex Lander carrying a single
platoon of raiders or commandos rather than a full company. During the Kafer War,
the main use of the City was for Strike Ships to deliver small raids on Kafer held
worlds or to perform supply drops. It was intended for many of the Cities to be
replaced by the newer, much more capable Ravens but this was not to be following
the rapid expansion of the Assault Landing Group which had priority on these craft.
Although on occasions units of Ravens from the 1205 NIS tasked with supporting
special operations would be deployed onto FBS.

British Gallowglas Point Defence System

Developed by Woolf Industries for the Texan Space Navy, the Gallowglas is a
common upgrade to RSN ships. In essence it is a Submunition Launcher but the
munitions are optimised for defensive fire against missiles rather than striking enemy
hulls. However they are still more than capable of engaging ship sized targets.

Mass: 16 tons (loaded)

Cost: Lv810,000 (unloaded)
Surface Area: 20 square meters
Radar Cross Section: 12
Ordnance: 6 submunitions
Submunition Mass: 600kg each
Cost: Lv520,000 each

British Longbow Missile

Design Date: 2282

First Example Laid Down: 2282
First Example Completed: 2282
Fleets in Service: Britain
Number in Service: 810

Replacing the Starburst as the standard British Attack missile, the Longbow carries a
heavy warhead and an Semi-Independent tracking system like the SIM-14.

Notes: Due to the small hull size, Passive-7 is the largest sensor that can be fitted
without installing a proper folding array. This assumes the large conventional “missile
like” form I’ve given her. As a comparison, all in, a SIM-14 costs MLv20.2, including
a standard folding array passive sensor.

British Striker Ground Attack Missile

The Striker is a long range non-stutterwarp missile used to attack either ground
targets, or space stations. The warhead masses 1 ton, the guidance package is
negligable (5kg), the remaining mass is the booster. The weapon has a range of
3,600km, and so may be fired from an extremely high orbit.

Kinetic Warhead
DPV: 7,700
Burst Radius: 90m (Kinetic Explosion)

Grapeshot Warhead
The Grapeshot contains 1 million darts which saturate an area, killing everyone
within. This weapon is especially feared by any soldier who has seen its effects
on the ground. They are often used with Kinetic Kill weapons in destroying
defensive positions.
DPV: 4
Burst Radius: 550m

DPV: EP=10,000 explosion
Burst Radius: 700m

WASP
DPV: 7
Burst Radius: 1,800m

Chemical
Burst Radius: 10,000m

Illumination
Burst Radius: 20,000m

ARM
The ARM deploys a parachute at a pre-arranged point and searches for any
active radar or comms systems with 60km. If located, it attacks them. The
warhead is a standard HE warhead. These are commonly used during assault
landing operations.

Saturation Nuclear
This warhead exists, indeed most starfaring nations have them in their arsenals,
but is almost never deployed. Indeed even at the height of the German
Reunification War these weapons remained in their silos. However the Kafer
War has probably changed this, one of the survivors of the Rodney reported two
such weapons had been aboard the ship at the Battle of Beowulf.
DPV: 50 x 100kt nuclear warheads
Effect: total destruction within 5km, blast for 1km outside
