Esrayat class Cruiser

The Esrayat class Cruiser was constructed in response to an increase requirement for heavier, yet still maneuverable, vessels to offer better protection to Carrier Strike Groups alongside the older class of Destroyer Escorts such as the Roucart. Packing enough of a punch to defend itself and enough of a drone complement to provide a sufficient protection to other ships in the formation, the Esrayat class Cruiser falls into the Medium definition due to its smaller firepower and lesser tonnage than other cruisers of its class. Though still underpowered in comparison to the class of Battlecruisers, the Esrayat possesses speed, maneuverability and endurance over other ships in its type.
