EQUIPMENT

DESCRIPTION
The Bakura-class star destroyer is a capital ship originally manufactured by Bakuran shipyards as the backbone of the Bakuran Defence Fleet, specifically towards the end of the Galactic Civil War. Whilst at 18 ABY, only three had been known to have been built, the Bakura Class Star destroyers served as the core means of defence for the Bakuran System during the Corellian Crisis.

More recently however following the recent string of attacks on Bakuran trade ships, the planet's Governor had pushed through the bill within the Bakur Senate to reinstate the Bakuran Defence fleet, commissioning a small flotilla of Bakuran Class Star Destroyers to protect the trade interests of Bakura's recovering economy, citing the lack of protection being offered by the New Republic or the Free World Alliance, that had forced planets such as Bakura to invest in protecting the interests of their sovereignty.

The Bakura-class - whilst like all star destroyers is a large ship, it is notably smaller than such typical examples as the Venator or Imperial Classes. Coming in at 850 meters in length, approximately 300 meters shorter than the Venator Class. It has a crew of 5000 - 8525 and can carry 2,000 passengers, plus 16,000 standard tons of cargo and consumables sufficient for 2 standard years in space. Whilst it's armament is by contrast lighter than the more recognisable Star Destroyer class of capital ship, it is however not lacking any teeth.

Its Armament compliment includes; 6 dual mount heavy turbolaser turrets, 2 medium heavy laser turrets, 30 dual light laser turrets and 2 proton torpedo launchers. As such for its lighter armament and being designed and built around the power reactors used within the Imperial II class destoryers, It has an improved top speed of 70 MGLT, and is equipped with a class 2 hyperdrive. Its onboard hanger facilities allow for a light starfighter/bomber complement of 80, 5 shuttles and 30 troop landing craft.

Designed to be the back bone of the Bakuran Defence fleet, the Bakura Class was designed around the power reactor used by the Imperial II- Class Star destroyers, originally equipped with experimental Hyperwave inertial momentum sustainers to allow the capital ships to be capable of escaping interdiction fields that had been deployed by Vagaari raiders originating from the Unknown regions that the remote planet of Bakura sat on the border of. Whilst in comparison to other ships of its class, The Bakura Class is a slightly less powerful class of warship that served the role of defending the interests of the remote planet.

After the fall of the First Order, the last of the Bakura Classes were decomissioned, owing to the running costs to maintain and operate having placed a stranglehold on the Bakuran Government, who found themselves like many worlds entering a recession following the second Galactic war to have gripped the Galaxy within the space of a hundred years. It is however, now in the present day, where Bakura is once again finding its feet and reaching out to it's neighbouring worlds, that the Bakura Class is starting to make a return, so to allow the Bakuran Defence fleet to adequately protect and secure the sector from the rising pirate threat.

LEGALITY
Restricted. Bakura-class star destroyers are classified as capital ships under Galactic law, and possess heavy weapons. As such, civilian owners will require extra licensing to operate one legally, and will receive increased scrutiny by authorities. Even then, they are ridiculously expensive to operate; only a relatively large faction or decently well-off planetary government would be able to afford it without swiftly bankrupting themselves. An individual would stand no chance.

INTENT
To bring a vessel from Legends canon and adapted to fit into our site's fanon.

RESTRICTIONS
Bakura-class star destroyers are large capital ships with heavy weapons, and capital ships cannot be owned or operated by individual characters. They may be acquired as a faction asset with staff oversight.
