(Cruiser) HY-class Fleet Carrier
Versatile carrier platform based on the post-fall, UAS-developed Hydra-class hull design, incorporating elements from the proposed Series 2 of that hull. HY-class is a much more capable vessel, with enhanced electronic systems and a much improved primary armament. This class provides the Aquarian Imperial Navy with a fast, versatile carrier-strike capability, able to be deployed anywhere where ATIS has influence and beyond.
