DESCRIPTION​

Recently developed in the design rooms linked to the Christophsis driveyards, the Thorne's Endeavour line of starships was begun as a project to ensure that the ISC Navy would, eventually, no longer need to rely on exports to supply it's own ships. Named after the first president of the ISC, the TE line of ships covers everything from Cruisers to Starfighters and everything in between. Currently developed and produced exclusively by the shipyards above Christophsis, this will be expanded to other ISC shipyards as they become available.

As implied by the designation, the TE-1 Destroyer was the first ship fully designed as part of this process and was designed to be the biggest, heaviest, ship within the ISC Navy. This is both by the nature of ISC fleets being more mobility focused and because it is the single largest class of ship currently capable of being produced by the Christophsis shipyards. After contracting with Asteria Industries, large command and other capital ships went into the process of refitting for the path engine. Due to its size and capacity, the path engine has been modeled to accommodate for such war vessels in the ISC navy.

The TE-1 Destroyer was built to be quite agile and spritely for it's size to better fit in with the principle behind ISC fleet composition as well, though in order to achieve this without sacrificing raw firepower, the decision was made to utilize the space that would have been saved for a hanger bay and use it for extra engine and power core space instead. Typical of many ISC ships and the principles behind them again, the TE-1 Destroyer is designed to be crewed by a mixture of both organic and droid crew-members. Overall command of the ship and its weapons systems are controlled by organics, while navigation and engineering see an increased number of droid crew-members.

LEGALITY​

Restricted. TE-1 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.

INTENT​

Intent is to bring in a ship made by the shipyards created by the ISC around Christophsis in order to start making ships of their own and no longer need to focus so heavily on imported ships. The write up has been edited to reflect the refitting with the path engine.

RESTRICTIONS​

Yes. TE-1 Destroyers are large capital ships, therefore these that cannot be owned or operated by individual characters. A faction would be required to obtain and crew a ship of this size. Produced by and for the ISC alone, this would be faction-specific tech.
