ADVANCED SYSTEMS

Strengths:
The Sniper of Space: The Heavy Turbolasers allow the RBV-5 to attack from much further then most of it’s opponents and take on heavy targets without getting in close range. While this is a good starting attack on enemies when on it’s own, it is also an excellent team function as the RBV can remain nearer to the rear of the battle, while maintaining active assistance.
Heavy Carrier: The ship carries numerous fighters, support craft, and vehicles, making it an excellent addition to any large battle whether to assist or on its own. It is particularly helpful in invading enemy planets, as it can deploy its fighters to keep its enemy ships occupied while going in closer to deploy dropships, vehicles, and ground forces to take on the planets from both fronts. The fighters have easy entrance and exits through larger gaps then most ships have.
Weaknesses:
-Fighter/fast bomber enemies: The ships personnel arsenal is not necessarily fast enough for all fighters and bombers, meaning without it’s fleet it can be in danger against the craft light enough to dodge it. This is also due to some of its cannons being used as long range or against powerful ships, and not to deal with the smaller ones.
-Defenses: Semi-open docking system: While it was somewhat more protected now then the original, the dock for the ships are still very open, making it unfortunately to easy for kamikaze ships crashing into it, or particularly skilled enemies to land and release parties on board.
Description:
The RBV-5, Rothana Battlecruiser Version 5, is an updated model of the original Rothana Battlecruiser. While, mile to mile, it would be considered inferior to the earlier model, which was almost littered in weaponry and ships, the RBV-5 sized up almost 3 times, while maintaining the same number of ships. THe RBV-5 did however create a bit more difficulty for entrance and access to the Hangar and Carrier, which had previously been incredibly open and vulnerable, now becoming more covered and protected physically and with shielding.
The Battlecruiser still did manage to maintain a weakness to the Hangar, as it still had a more open concept, meaning skilled enough pilots in fighters or quick bombers could navigate their way inside if they could get past the defenses and other fighters.
