Technical and Historical Notes:
Adams Class
The Adams class was designed as an easy to manufacture assault craft to work in a group of six. Primarily designed for fighter clearance; using its 30mm rail guns and Dart missiles. The group with use an arrow formation flying directly at the enemy fighters, firing when within range, acting as a blanket for the larger more vulnerable ships. The Adams class works best when being reinforced by a squadron of F-302s to mop up any loose fighters. The Adams can also act as a capital ship attacker using its larger 120mm and 250mm rail guns and its compliment of Sorp missiles.

Adams Ship
The Adams was the first of the Adams class to be manufactured, it was sent on a trail run to the Peragus Galaxy to help with the fight against the Wraith.
Initial fighting showed the ship had the right capability for fighter clearance and the added larger weapons helped with capital ship removal. However in the deep end of battle the Adams had a critical targeting system failure causing the rail gun firing sequence to fail, leading to a back up system installed on later models.

Technical and Historical Notes:
Warrior Class
The warrior class was designed as a straight fighting ship, small and very mobile the Warrior class could out manoeuvre any ship in the human fleet, forgoing a hyperdrive for a larger weapon capacity, the Warrior class was just as capable attacking capital ships than fighters.
Instead of a hyperdrive the Warrior class would “piggy back” a ride by clamping itself to another ship using its magnetic/beaming clamps allowing it to be held in place during flight.

Warrior Ship [Mark II]
The Warrior [Mark I] was the first of the warrior class ships, it had a hyperdrive instead of a larger weapons capacity, initial trials found the ship to be better than expected, but during a battle situation the ship couldn’t perform as well as expected, having a weapons array too small to handle the ships role. It was destroyed in flight.
The Warrior [Mark II] for go the hyperdrive for a more deadly array of weapons. With the hyperdrive gone a clamping mechanism was invented to allow the ship to still travel with the fleet even due to its size.

i agree with immhotep, finally a good tau'ri designed ship...i'd green you but i can't...i have a ship on it's way, it's not tau'ri but it is from a slightly more advanced human culture in Pegasus used in the lantean wars against the wraith...it will have an extensive backstory including a possible battle report...

[WTFOwned]

I like the idea, but it seems kind of rough around the edges and reminds me of a school bus.

I totally agree with that statement.
It looks like a shuttle mixed with a school bus, or even the Magic School Bus[/memories]

I'm currently working on a project to design and build a 3d first person shooter for Windows and the Xbox 360 (Google: XNA), so once I have some of the ship designs for it, I'll post them here. When I do, keep in mind they fit into a completely different universe.
EDIT: I'll post more about that in the off topic forum if you're interested in helping.

S-555A Farber

THe hsip was moisioned to recover space debris and be a platform for scietific testing and studies. 4 others were to be constructed.

it has a massive cargo bay with two doors that open out.


This ship was constructed as the joint effort of 56 nations on the planet Regla. The ships purpose was to clean up the space debris around the planet, because travel had become to dangerous with all the loose things floating aorund the planet.. Plans for the ship were created in 2012. The ships was finished in 2024. Although relatively weak compared to Earth ships, it was the most advanced tecnology on regla at the time. the ship was used for over 3 years until one of the nations announced it would be producing another ship, only this one would have weapons and be used in the military. The other 55 nations were threatened and retaliated with the use of nuclear weapons. A massive nuclear war broke out and all life on earth was erased. The Farber, while collecting the old lunar landers on the moon to be placed in museums, had been out of radio contact for several days. once the cpatian of the Farber figured out what had happened, he had to make a decision. Since they had only rations for a few more weeks, the captain was going to fly the ship into space in the hope that some one some where might shome day find it. The crew accepted there fate, for there was no other. But some of the agents of the country that had started the whole problem seized command of the ship and flew it into the atmosphere at to steep of an angle and it desinegrated in reentry.

The Rapier the pics of ship

Spoiler:

Name: Rapier

Type: Prototype Organic “Bio-mechanoid Ship” ; long range, hyperspace capable, tactical assault ship.

Technology base: Unknown

Operators: Humans

Naval Classification: Has none

Hull: The hull is one fifty meters thick consisting of a genetically engineered metal organic (Nanites with integrated biological-organic component) made of a Naquada/Trinium alloy. In theory the ship is a living metal organism, with the ability to integrate with mechanical technology. The ship has the ability to “heal” itself much like that of a Wraith ship.

Decks:There are 25 decks, with the bottom four decks larger in height than the others.

Dimensions: The decks are three meters high with ventilation areas running between decks, , except for the bottom decks which are eight meters in height. The overall height of the ship is 195 meters, with a beam of 560 the overall length is 920 meters.

Displacement: 3,500,000 metric tons

Crew: The ship has a crew of 900 men and women

Craft: The Rapier carries 100 Slither fighters in its two hanger bays with space for maintenance.

Vehicles: None

Power plant: The ship is powered by two Beta Modules.

Engines: The Rapier is equipped with an advanced hyperdrive capable of interstellar travel along with sublight propulsion, Anti-Gravity engines and Ion Drives.

Armament/Weapons:
The Rapier is equipped with an array of different weapons to combat its enemies.
>> Multiple rotating rapid-fire pulse cannons line the ship allowing point defence and offensive capability.
>> Ten beam energy weapon allays are used as the primary weapon, five arrays at the front of the ship and five array lined for the rear of the ship. This allowed the whole ship to be protected from all angles allowing maximum range.
>> The Rapier is also equipped with a vast number of Advanced Drones. Fired from three launchers, one located at the front of the ship, and the others at the rear.
All weapons systems can be controlled by the crew and also controlled by the ship.

Defences: The Rapier is equipped with advanced defences, these consist of;
>> Three Advanced shield generators. Two shields are produced which overlap, this allows neither shield to feel a greater energy strain than the other allowing faster recharge rates and a longer damage capacity and the final shield acts as a backup in case of previous failure.
>> Each nanite produces a small shield around itself, these acts as a secondary buffer to damage increasing the defensive capability of the ship.
>> Nanite hull. As described in hull.

Other Technology:
The Rapier is equipped with;
>> Status Pods
>> Four Ring Transporters (located in cargo and hanger bays)
>> Phased Cloak
>> Tractor Beam tech

Technical and Historical Notes:

Technical Notes:

Spoiler:

All technology on the Rapier is enhanced by Nanite technology allowing repair and enhancements to happen automatically.

Beta Module;

Spoiler:

The Rapier is equipped with a brand new power supply. The power supply (named Beta Module) is a more compact version of the Ancient ZPM. It produces a different frequency of energy allowing the ship to feed off of it. The beta module resonates at a different frequency meaning it cannot be used as a ZPM replacement.

The Rapier:

Spoiler:

The Rapier is a living ship; it is a bio-mechanoid constructed of nanites which have been integrated with an organic sub-system allowing the nanites to interact as human cells do in the body. This allows the ship to live, it has a vast intelligence able to interact with others especially those with a bio-mech link. Due to the nature of the nanites it can adapt and evolve allow repair and growth of systems.

Bio-mech link

Spoiler:

The ship can be only be used by those with the ATA gene (a design for safety). This allows the crew to interact with the controls of the ship, allowing it to be used as a normal ship. There is a problem however, due to the fact that the ship is living it may choose not to follow orders and instead act alone. As a precaution the captain of the ship is injected with bio-mech nanites, this allows the captain to interact with the ship as one, sitting at a control chair using the ATA gene for telepathic commands and then his “bond” he can control the ship as a extension of his own body. This is rarely done.

History:

The ship is the product of bio-engineering nanites to act as cells of a organic body, the research and develop took many generations of manipulation. (more to be added)

ROTFLMFAO!!!!!! Fanwank!!! Fanwank!!! Talk about rediculous! 25,000 feet long, that's 5 miles. Yeah right, like that is ever gonna happen. I just can't stop laughing about thisone. Sorry, but it's just too funny. This one ship represents more than the entire planet can produce in ten years. I'm gonna go now, I need to take some time to finish laughing.

[WTFOwned]

All these fanwanks give me an idea, but I'll need to get the Max 9 trial, un momentito!


Well, while that's taking hours upon hours to download and then later install, I'll explain what I'm doing.

I'm going to create the ultimate fanwank ship, but for a specific purpose: destroying other fanwanks It will be so freaking huge I'll call it the "Universe Ship", hundreds of miles long and carrying the biggest weapons you could possible think of, it would be totally indestructible! It would have extra sets of backup systems, plus factories to make more in case the back ups were all destroyed. It would be able to get supplies from hyper space through a fax-like system. The design will be nothing in particular, just a ship that would pwn all others. Muhahahahahaha

Well, considering that my city ship is about, oh, 18 kilometers long when sized against Atlantis(dang that is big! But it has to hold all those Ancients, drones and stuff... yeah... never mind, that is frickin huge. I am resizing. I didn't realize it was that big.) and it only has eight beam cannons... I think that is over kill. I am not even sure 10 beam cannons could even fit on that ship.
Geat concepts though, just the weaponry is insane.
And cool design of the ship.
