==Overview:==
The Exeter Class is a dependable and versatile design that reflects the
Federated Sun's strategy of multi-role vessels and mobile defense. The Exteter
has been used as an independant radier, though suitable for all manner of
missions, it excels at service with battleship squadrons and at system defense
against raiders.
==Capabilities:==
Designed in 3057 by the mammoth Bristol-Dulca ShipWorks, the Exeter is
simultaneously a straightforward and successful multi-role military vessel and
also an oddity. The oddity is that it had it's origins in the hands of both
the Federated Suns Naval command and the politicans who run the Federated
Suns.
It's sucesss have been trumpeted in the media but none as much as the initial
fevor over the political implications of the Exeter design.
The sole weakness of this vessel is it's lack of long range weapons, while
what it has is capabile of defending the vessel, the lack of more long range
fire power can become a problem during engagments with bigger vessels. This
weakness is made up in two areas, first the Exeter is very fast for it's size
and this allows the ship to move to engage the enemy on it's terms not theirs.
The second area that is there to off set the lack of long range fire power is
the large number of fighters the Exeter carries. These allow the ship to bring
the fight to the enemy or to help protect the ship in close combat.
The secondary weapons on the Exeter pack a healthy punch and allow the ship to
fight off enemy fighters and other smaller vessels.
==Battle History:==
Numerous skirmishes and running battles with pirate ships and CapCon raiders
have been the main stay of engagments fought by this class of warship.
==Deployment==
Exeter Class ships is found through out the Federated Suns with the largest
number patroling along the Capllean Confederation border.
