U.N.C.F. Murasame CAS-707 Murasame-Class Space Cruiser Wave III

“You know what they say: When it rains, it pours…”

The Murasame Class cruisers have been a mainstay in the United Nations Cosmo Force Navy since the launch of the class’ namesake, the UNCF Murasame (CAS-707), in 2170 to help combat the Martian Space Fleet during both of the Inner Planetary Wars. After the conclusion of both wars, the scale of the UNCF Navy was brought down by placing many ships into mothballs. Many Murasame Class cruisers would fall into a state of disrepair alongside the larger Kongo Class of battleships, while the smaller Isokaze Class destroyers would provide anti-pirate services.

On April 1st, 2190, first contact would be made with the Great Gamillas Empire, and yet another war would break out when the Murasame herself, under the command of Captain Daigo Shima, was ordered to fire on the incoming alien vessels. She was then lost with the majority of her crew that same day. Many of the mothballed vessels would be brought back into service after hasty retrofits, though they would be rapidly lost due to the extreme advantage in technology the Empire held against the UNCF. By 2199, the UNCF was down to only two battle-ready vessels: the UNCF Kongo of the Kongo Class battleships, and the UNCF Yamato, the first of her class and built to take on a long journey to a distant planet of Iskandar.

Upon Yamato’s return from her journey, the UNCF would begin a rapid salvage and refit of the remains of older vessels to bulk up the fleet. A new vessel was constructed of the Wave III type of Murasame Class cruisers to act as a testing platform for the refits done to the original design. In honor of the original, and at the request of the acting Captain of the Space Battleship Yamato, Shiro Sanada, this vessel was given the same name and registry designation as the original, UNCF Murasame CAS-707.

The Murasame would serve all throughout the Gatlantis-Earth War in 2202 until she had been severely damaged and forced to make an emergency water landing off the coast of Sydney, Australia. From there she would be moderately repaired and sent back out to serve as a defensive vessel until the UNCF could rebuild the fleet once more.

Creator’s Note:

I’ve had a deep love of this ship ever since I first started watching Space Battleship Yamato when I was a kid. I’m not particularly good at remaking ships from popular sci-fi but I found a model built by Blue Moon (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2847192318),
and a series of good mods made by ribera1945e (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2887017433), that really allowed this ship to come to life. The initial model needed a decent amount of tweaking, but the overall design is still a majority Moon’s. I hope you guys enjoy!
