CRN Templar Class Cruiser

The CRN Templar Class is the CRN's new top of the line space combatant, rugged and speedy the Templar is just one new line in a series of new warships being commissioned into the Republic Navy. With its two quad barreled rail turrets the Templar is not only capable of projecting the Republics power, but enforcing it.

Born out of a need for a new space combatant, the CRN desperately needed an expeditionary cruiser class to fill the shoes of the old and aging Beowulf classes, speedy, well armed and armored were the prime requirements for a new ship design to be laid down. Design drafting for the Templar began in 2980 with over a year and a half of different companies revising and redesigning their designs in competition for the contract for the ship that would become the Templar. In 2985 the Newport Shipbuilding Industries laid down the first outline for what would become the Templar later on. With the first ship rolling off of the production line just over two and a half years later, named after the Knights Templar, the designers envisioned the Templar class as a highly capable fighting machine, with the abilities to project the Republics power across it's sovereignty and beyond. The next three ships in the class would roll off the production line several months later, with the Templar class almost entirely replacing the old Beowulf class in the CRN's various expeditionary fleets. The Templar class wouldn't see combat until the outbreak of the Republic-Xeno war, where the Templar helped act as a spearhead for assaulting Republic forces, with its revolutionary design the Templar was able to quickly rush past enemy ships and break their defensive lines in various orbital positions, Templars in the battles for the capturing and defense of Gideon would cut enemy fleets apart from one another dividing and conquering enemy battlegroups.

I've been working on this ship for about four weeks, it works pretty well. And it is quite honestly one of my favorite cruiser deigns, and there is a lot more where this ship came from. I envision that I'll have a few more designs out by either early or late February. So keep your eye out for that, Lastly, Stay happy and healthy and enjoy!!
