Xenvakian Dreadnaught (No longer in production)

(Edit: I started to do not like the bridge section so I internalized it and gave the ship a new look)

If there's one thing that the Xenvakians always stuck to their guns for, it's the modularity of their ships. The Xenvakian Dreadnaught is no exception. A competent (perhaps overkill) battle cruiser, it can go toe to toe with anything you can throw it at (unless you have a Little David installed to punch shields to heck). Rigorous testing was made to ensure that these craft can be made by engineer hands (it's expensive however. It can be worth it if you don't go into combat too recklessly).

The ship is equipped with a bubble shield and shroud shield, aka the Defense Shield and Energy Shield. Due to the ship's power grid, anything that can touch it (except said Little David and above) can't do much to keep the shield's down for long. The shroud shield is capable of holding its own in the case of the bubble shield going down, so this combination makes the Xenvakian Dreadnaught really damn stubborn.

This ship is equipped with 12 Tier 4 Jump Drives, collectively called the Omega Jump Drive, and will allow you to travel 1.40 lightseconds in a blink. (This is no joke. AceSoren has seen this himself, and wound up fainting a bit, haha.) This will allow it to go far into unknown space to make interception impossible by most ships unless your ship is capable of deep space travel as well.

This ship also has jumpdrive Jammers that can shut down any jumpdrives within 5k, this includes the ship that is using the jammer and when you try to turn the jumdrives back on it will only damage them.

A new addition from previous developments is the installation of the Atlas Super Laser. Two to be precise. These weapons tank power, but that is buffered instantly by the high yield power grid. This new weapon is a shipkiller, and since the Dreadnaught has two, well... Have fun if you're right in front of one of these babies.

Speaking of weapons, the outer shell's usual fare is MK1 MexPex Battering Cannons and twin M.A.C gun turrets on the top and bottom of the ship. This allows the Dreadnaught to have enough firepower to stop enemy forces in their tracks while the ship charges and/or reloads the weapons in its maw.

The Dreadnaught's modularity is nothing to scoff at. If you need to switch weapons, go ahead. The conveyor junctions make it surprisingly easy to replace weapons and make loadouts depending on the situation. The only drawback, however, is the high yield power grid, however strong it may be. Weapons such as the Ancient Spinal Laser just robs the ship of all power except for auxilary.

This ship isn't just a battle cruiser. It also doubles as a carrier as well, capable of containing a strong variety of Xenvakian fighter crafts, such as the Pyro Striker, the Xenvakian built Pyro GX (thanks to PTMC's bankruptcy), Nightmares, and other crafts (unless they're too big to fit through the hangar doors, of course *no pun intended*). The default configuration is 4 Strikers and 6 Nightmares. The hangar incorporates Engineer connectors, so if anyone needed to get in (say a victim of pirate tomfoolery), they can dock, and the Dreadnaught will engage as necessary to ensure their safety.
