Designed around the Mass accelerator cannon that nearly runs the length of the ship it has the appearance of a ancient pre-spaceflight underwater vessel known as a submarine and even has four missile ports built into the front of the ship two per side giving it a very ancient submarine look though it is a vastly more powerful vessel than any known variant of Submarine or Naval Vessel.

abstract
  • Designed around the Mass accelerator cannon that nearly runs the length of the ship it has the appearance of a ancient pre-spaceflight underwater vessel known as a submarine and even has four missile ports built into the front of the ship two per side giving it a very ancient submarine look though it is a vastly more powerful vessel than any known variant of Submarine or Naval Vessel. Design Goal Fast and well armed the class sacrificed armor to facilitate higher speed and maneuverability though it was also coated in a Sensor dampening paint and has some lesser stealth technology built into it was never intended as a stealth ship it was intended as a fast multi role ship to ship combatant though it was never deployed as the crew of the test ship described the crew spaces as "extremely cramped and narrow" resulting in only one prototype ship being constructed and all following planned ships converted into other more effective designs. Weaponry Design Requirements One of the main requirements for the design process was a mass accelerator cannon as this weapon system was said to be the weapon of the future. The Rifleman class could be said to be a compact design as all of its weapons were mounted either in recesses in the hull or affixed to the side of the ship though the 6 weapon hardpoint/pylons at the rear though this did restrict the aft firing arc of even the secondary weapons it gave the ship the capability to mount weaponry in excess of what it could normally mount at the expense of speed and maneuverability in combat.
