The Korhonen Ships
Mothership
These heavily armed 5 mile long ships are mainly used as fighter carriers. Each mothership can carry
12 Squadrons of fighters (144 ships), and can accommodate 5 Legions of ground forces. It is a
particularly good vessel in combat, and is often used in planetary assaults. Several of these vessels
would have let the invasion of Earth if the Morgenson had not intervened. There are an estimated
300 of these ships in the Korhonen fleet.
Despite the mothership size of
1 mile wide, 5 miles long and roughly 0.8 mile height at the thickest
part it has tremendously powerful weapons systems. However these are
mostly air to surface weapons. This is why these are seldom without a
battleship escort.
The main fighter bays are located on the sides of the ship, however there are 3 large
hangers on the surface.
Battleship
The battleship is the backbone of the Korhonen fleet. Over 700 of these 4 mile long ships are
said to be in service. The carry a crew of around 450 and can provide transport for 2 legions
of ground forces. It can carry 6 fighter squadrons, which are launched from the rear of the
ship. The four forward weapons arrays are capable of devastating another vessel in seconds.
The ship is 2 miles wide, 4 miles long and 1.5 miles high in places. It has been in service for the past 50 years. Newer ships are being enhanced with extra armour and state of the art weaponry, stealth technology and tracking devices. There have even been reports of Korhonen battleships with visual cloaking devices.
Fighter
The Korhonen fighter is a quite
small ship that can only carry 4 Korhonen warriors. The rear of the ship resembles
the battleship with the similar engine block and wings spread which is swept
back slightly more than the battleship to aid in the slimness of the ship. The
front of it is a flattened saucer section that the crew are in. It is believed
that the pilots use an advanced holographic imaging system to get an idea of
the space around the ship. The ship has two laser weapons on either side of the
saucer and twin multidirectional cannons on the the engine block as well as on
the underside of the saucer which can prove extremely destructive. The ship is
extremely fast, it can outrun an earth destroyer, and is able to hit a target
accurately and deadly. The ship is highly maneuverable and can be a difficult
target to hit without extremely high specification targetting systems.
Each squadron of 12 fighters have a lead fighter that is slightly larger than the other fighters.
Other Korhonen Ships
There are other ships that the Korhonen use that include cargo ships, passenger transports and
other such like ships and these will be added in the future.
