Here is the link to the Google Sketchup design I did just Click Here

[Col. Shadow Quinn]

Shouldn't technology such as Inertial Dampeners, Artificial Gravity pods, Anti-Gravity wave Generators, Subspace Comm., Sensors, etc... be included? Mainly to keep the crew from being blobs on the walls of the ship and to keep the ship in midair when in the atmosphere? Subspace Comm and Sensors are also required on ships.

[Dogs_Body]

First time i bothered to come up with a ship design, so here it is


Ship Type: Battle Carrier
Ship Class: Victory Class
Technology base: Tau’ri/Asgard/Goa’uld
Commission Date: 2031


Length 830m
Depth 80m
Width 280m (at its largest)

(Taking as the Daedalus = 400m)


Power Source:
• 3 mark IV naquida reactor, 2 devoted to tactical systems (shields, weapons, sensors, active camouflage etc), 1 devoted to all other systems.
• 15 mark I and 5 mark III naquida generators distributed around the ship for backup purposes, mainly for critical systems, life support, gravity etc, but can be tied into other systems such as weapons, or beaming technology, communication.

Weapons
Coil Guns
- 5 twin barreled 350mm coil guns – Improved design of the “rail guns” from the original bc304. Having twin barrels increases the rate of fire, and its ability to continually bombard a target. The two barrels are rarely used at the same time. While one if firing the other is cooling down. Another improvement over the original design, is the velocity of the bullet, the kinetic energy of the bullet hitting a target has 20% of a Ha’tak cannon’s pulse.
-8 single barrel 250mm coil guns – Improved design over the bc304 rail gun, as it has a increased rate of fire and higher mussel velocity, though not a powerfully as the 350mm, they fire in pulses of 7 bullets to allow for the barrel to cool.
-14 twin barreled 150mm coil guns – mainly used for anti-fighter and anti-missile, but can still packet enough of an impact on medium class ships (al’kesh)


Laser/Particle
-6 laser cannons – based of the lasers of late 20th and early 21st century, theses lasers main objective is to punch though armour and create secondary explosions. They are also good at putting shields under continue pressure, although they are not as effective as high calibre coil guns on shields. They are also effective at missile and anti fighter defence, as they are quick targeting. They have a considerable long range in space, effective up to 100km, but their range is reduced in the atmosphere due to atmospheric disturbance, though this is minimalised by using adaptive optics

Missiles
-36 missile silos
• 20 mark vii naquadia enhanced tactical nuclear missiles, these missiles have greater speed and maneuverability than their predecessors. They contain sensor jamming and stealth technology. The more higher grade version has active camouflage hull. Optional settings of explode on intercept (i.e. being fired upon by fighter or hitting a shield)
• 16 mark xi naquaidria enhanced nuclear missiles, these have greater speed and maneuverability and contain jamming and stealth technology. They have an option of attaching a hyper-space generator for short jumps, for bypassing shields.
• 2 * 10 barreled missile platform for surface to air and air to air missiles with varying yields.


Other/ microwave
-Microwave and other electromagnetic transmitters that can interfere with other ships systems or missile systems.

-20 Phalanx cannon – used solely for anti fighter and anti missile defense short range.

Hull/Armour

-Alloy mesh – carbon 60/ trinium, titanium – using nano-technology to produce carbon-60 nano-tube which are woven into the trinium-titanium alloy. This increases the hull strength by a factor of 2. Plus the armour is less likely to suffer catastrophic failure (like re-enforced glass, it cracks instead of shattering)
-Angled – no surface of the hull is level, it is angled to increase the depth of the amour. It also decreases the sensor signature of the vessel.
-Absorption – the hull of the ship is also coated in a nano-solar panel, which can absorb certain amount of electromagnetic radiation, used mainly for emergency when main power is off line. It also allows small amounts of energy to be passed between allied ships if needs be during battles. An unintentional side effect of this coat is it’s ability to absorb a small percentage of some of energy weapons fire during a battle. This percentage is small but allows the vessel to stay in a battle for a little longer.
(link to what i mean: http://http://news.nationalgeographi...arplastic.html
• Camouflage
o Active camouflage – this technology is one step shy of a full cloak, it isn’t perfect but coupled with the ships other stealth technology, it is quite effective.


Engines
• Sub-light
-Electro static propulsion based of Thomas Townsend Brown’s electrically charged flying disks, powerful engine that don’t use fuel like conventional thruster, thereby freeing up space used by fuel storage
-Ion Engines, used for bursts of acceleration and manoeuvring based of Hebridan Ion drives.
-Manoeuvring thrusters, used for emergencies .
• Hyper space
-Earth built and designed hyper space engine. This engine is based of asgard designs, though as effective as the hyperspace engines the asgard gave earth, they are entirely built from earth based materials and are a little larger than the asgard built ones.


Shields
• Earth designed shields based of Asgard technology, up to 3-5 times the shield strength of the Daedalus shields, depending on how much power devoted to them.
• Radiation shielding – the inside of the ships hull is wired with a faraday cage, with a electrical current flowing through, which causes a magnetic field which helps deflect particles (like earth magnetic field deflecting the solar wind). An added bonus it helps disperse power overloads across the hull of the ship, and helps shield critical systems.


Crew Complement
• 300 crew
• 150 flight personnel
• accommodate up to 3000 troops (only for short haul)

Aircraft Complement
This ship can accommodate up to 60 F302’s or other space capable fighters. And 5 drop ships

Though this configuration can change to allow for tanks and other ground based attack vehicles.



Fanwank extra’s: (i.e. not actually on the ship, just for fun
Sodan cloak
Tolan phase-shifting
2 Ancient particle beam
Ancient shields
3-ZPM power source
4 Asgard Neutrino generators
2 Ori particle beam
Semi Organic hull
Wraith plasma cannons
…. And a partridge in a pair tree….


Note:

this ship is designed to be completely earth built so not to rely on other races. Design: thinking based off the 304 design except longer, wider and with extended hanger bays

History
This ship was completed in 2016 to take on up to 5 Hatak class vessels and come out victorious. All of the ship's systems were Earth built at Area 51 so Earth could be less dependant on the Asgard for technology in its war against the Lucian Alliance and Jaffa. This ships first test in a combat situation was when the Jaffa attacked Cimmeria. The Asskicker was sent to Cimmeria promptly after learning of the takeover of Cimmeria. When it arrived, it saw 3 Hatak in orbit around the planet. After warning the Jaffa ships to leave the immediate area, it raised shields and prepared for the attack.The Jaffa ships fired and the Asskicker fired back. The Asskicker won the battle with minimal damage.

Here's my starship, I had to edit some of it a few times. It not too weak, but it isn't fanwank either. Not to mention it's battle capacity is quite impressive in its own respect.

[immhotep]

cheers, maybe it can be used for the virtual fleet 2.0?

If you enter it for the Battlecarrier class, which is up next or up soon then i would defintly be interested in voting for /adding it to the fleet. Its a very good ship. In fact so far its the best B.C i have seen recently.

[boberth2o]

kind of long, ain't it.

Well yeah I guess your right Put the whole point of my making that long is so when wee were to go up to like 5 ha'taks we would be able to take it on and not flee. and we still dont have a shp the can hold more than 8/16 fighters(I dont really know how many). In the show like almost every ship is bigger than the earth ships so I thought it could be nice for a larger earth ship, it's only like twice the size of the Daedalus and then the Daedalus is twice the size of Promethesus.

Technical and Historical Notes:

How the Phoenix came about
After the war with the replicators a faction of the Asgard, who had come accustom to war, split off and fled their fellow kind, to begin a new life. The faction who named themselves the Titans plagued their rivals, pirating from the Asgard fleets, and attacking ships, their leader Jörmungandr created a marvellous ship known as Ragnarök. Ragnarök was a large ship rivaling that of the O’Neill class ship created by the Asgard, the ship was 1900 meters in length and carried a heavy compliment of weapons, it was colored a deep black, and was equipped with an advanced cloak. Jörmungandr commanded the Ragnarök against the Asgard during their fight utilizing its weapons and cloak until finally defecting back to the Asgard at the height of the Ori war, the Ragnarök presumed destroyed.

After the war with the Ori and the expansion of the Tau’ri, Jörmungandr approached a third party located on Earth with a proposition, in return for the schematics for a prototype ship similar to the Ragnarök, this third party must keep Jörmungandr safe from the Asgard council who had grown tired of Jörmungandr traitorous ways. Jörmungandr was protected for as long as possible before being discovered by the Asgard and taken away.

However, the plans were never discovered until a rich business man approached the Tau’ri fleet with a proposition. Shortly after a ship began construction, admittedly mainly constructed by the Asgard. After completion the ship was returned to its owner and the proposition was for filled.
