An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Unlike the Raker-class missile frigate, the Broadside was 500 meters long and it used its 40 missile launchers in a much different way. While the Raker was loaded with concussion missiles, the Broadside was fitted with diamond boron missiles, which allowed it to take on massed groups of fighters with ease. Other than the missile tubes and two tubolasers, the ship had no other defensive weapons, making it quite vulnerable to capital ships. It was also not very self-sufficient, lacking any hangar bay or passenger room.

  • Unlike the Raker-class missile frigate, the Broadside was 500 meters long and it used its 40 missile launchers in a much different way. While the Raker was loaded with concussion missiles, the Broadside was fitted with diamond boron missiles, which allowed it to take on massed groups of fighters with ease. Other than the missile tubes and two tubolasers, the ship had no other defensive weapons, making it quite vulnerable to capital ships. It was also not very self-sufficient, lacking any hangar bay or passenger room. The secret of its diamond boron missiles came from the fact that the missiles were easily capable of evading radar, and once in proximity to its target, the missiles deployed blast shields that could withstand starfighter firepower. The missiles also had a blast range of 50 meters, allowing it to easily eliminate many fighters with just a few missiles.
