Foxhunter Class DDG

Description
The Foxhunter class of Guided Missile Destroyers are fast ships based on the Dawntreader class Frigates. As such, Foxhunter shares many of the same characteristics.

The primary difference between the two is that Foxhunter carries over double the amount of torpedo launchers and is designed to remain operational with over 50% of the ship destroyed.

The rear section of the ship is specially designed to withstand the loss of the front section while remaining combat capable and able to escape combat.

She carries a total of 14 nuclear torpedo tubes, 8 main guns, and 14 auto-cannons for close in defense.

Her primary mission is destroying large enemy vessels with her torpedoes in battle, but she also can fulfill the patrol duties of the smaller Frigates because she can easily catch and kill raider vessels.

The vessel is equipped with a special "double barrier" shield system, where the sides are protected by two layers of energy shields that recharge independently of each other. When one barrier drops, the doctrine is to rotate the vessel and face the other side of the ship toward the enemy, allowing for protracted engagements without taking damage and contributing to the high efficiency of this vessel for long range patrol operations in austere environments.

CFRK = Cybernetic Federal Republic of Kaltovar

Ship works best with manual control but can play alright in an AI fleet.

Hey Dexter! You should be using the speed and maneuverability to avoid getting hit in the nose too much. The low armor means the double shields on the sides or heavy armor in the back should be taking most of the damage. If you're getting hit in the nose a lot try turning your side to the enemy and firing back. If you lose one level of the double shields, turn again and face a fresh side toward them.

for each fight, the noise is destroyed, and a lot of crew members are killed...
