A merry band of pirates

This is a small collection of ship types which I have used in several campaigns. Taken as a group, it supports an interesting (I think) departure from the vanilla playstyle.

Salutation and exposition
Most respected and honorable tarkhans,

Please find attached a collection of ship blueprints. The ships they represent are the result of many hours of work by his Majesty's draftsmen and many hours of experimentation by his soldiers and artificers. Moreover they have all taken part in successful Gerati campaigns, both separately and all together as elements of an integrated fleet.

Their characteristics vary, according to their roles, but one thing they have in common is they can all surpass 210 km/h. A grouping made of such ships need never worry about being chased down by any Gerati fleet, as long as basic electronic warfare precautions are observed. This allows tarkhans to choose which engagements they take, for the most part.

The fleet role they have been designed around may be called that of the ambush predator - a keen-eyed and -eared beast lurking stealthily, ready to overpower its victim with one decisive leap or a sudden strike from the darkness!

May you to pilot them to victory.
Task Group Neyasyt'

Serving as the "ears" of the group - the EWAR ship "Iskra 2"


A last-ditch defender, or a lure that can't be easily swallowed - the missile defense ship "Ekran"


A nimble and fast predator, fragile and tough at the same time - the gun corvette "Peskar"


A heavy hitter who is still surprisingly agile - gun frigate "Tolstyak"


A ship to ward off the worst of eventualities - missile complex "Topol"


A capable escort that can provide early warning, fighter sweeps, strikes, CAP or last-ditch defense, as needed - the fleet carrier "Angara"


A ship that can fend for itself in any situation, up to and including an all out nuclear war - the light cruiser "Shkara"


Last but not least, a heavy tanker, key to the operational mobility of the fleet - the tanker "Deeznatz"

I have not included alternatives for such mainstays as the "Skylark", "Navarin" or "Fenek" since their designs can hardly be improved upon. Feel free to mix them into your own fleet composition as needed!
In closing
I would like to thank the author of https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2561916894
as well as all the tarkhans who have shared their own designs and experiences - I have learned from every one of you.
