Arkaan Class Escort Airship
The Arkaan Class Escort Airship is a helium filled, rigid airship produced by Franberrian Airships. It is an escort airship, which will protect convoys. It is very effective due to the long time it can spend in the air, and due to the small crew, has the room to accommodate for large numbers of hardpoints. The airship can also be used in an offensive manner, supporting ground troops with long-range weaponry, it is not advisable to bring the airship too close to the enemy, as it is slow to turn.
A large Radar/Ladar component is stored in the front of the ship. It can track multiple targets and it can also functions as an AWACS. Should the time for evacuation occur, the crew could quickly exit via the detachable gondola (holds 30).
