Meanwhile, I've finished Version 2, with some pretty heavy alterations. Presenting for your consideration, the Phantom-class carrier.
Designed by Corusa Industries for sale to anti-imperial paramilitary units, as well as the company's own use, the Phantom-class is designed for extended operation in deep space, capable of acting independently for months or even years at a time when properly maintained. The ship measures 1.2 kilometers from bow to stern, with a total wingspan of nearly a kilometer and a depth of 200 meters. The ship is heavily armed, sporting a total of 300 individual Asclepius missile emplacements across the frame, along with another 120 beam cannon emplacements each packing the firepower of a standard beam rifle. For anti-ship firepower, a Phantom-class vessel mounts ten turret-mounted beam launchers located on the forward pylons, side pylons, and either side of the central body, as well as a pair of underslung charged particle cannons whose support frames double as the ship's landing gear. Finally, each Phantom-class carrier features a Vector Destroyer spatial fold cannon mounted along the front of the ship's bow. A devastating weapon, the Vector Destroyer creates an area of twisted space which is then "launched" like a projectile at the target, tearing it apart regardless of armor until the spatial fold runs out of energy. Captains with particularly good insight and timing can utilize the Vector Destroyer for a defensive purpose as well - by firing the weapon so that it "catches" the beam or projectile of a similarly powerful weapon, the attack will be trapped in the twisted space until the energy of both are negated. This will typically stop the incoming superweapon, and if it does not it will still reduce the damage inflicted greatly.
