Design

Based on a research project found after the fall of the Principality of Belka in the late 2180s and early 2190s, the Valkyrie class is designed around the Belkan idea of "Bigger is better" making it the largest purpose-built carrier known. Featuring high angles and a sleek look, the Valkyrie possesses a low RCS for a large capital ship similar to the technology used by IKN Ikon.

Accompanying her large flight deck, the Valkyrie class possesses four Northwind Heavy Industries Electromagnetic Naval Launch System (EMNLS) Catapults. The EMNLS allows the launch of heavy aircraft in a very short length of the deck, freeing more of the deck for recovery and deck storage of aircraft.

Development

With the Victory of the Atreian Alliance as but assured in the early 2190's, the Department of the Navy ordered research into a possible new Supercarrier to bolster the Atreian Navy's power projection capability in and around the Tau Sea

Service History

The First Valkyrie Class was commissioned on May 8th, 2196 becoming the flagship of the Atreian Navy's 1st Fleet. Transferring ANS Ella II to the 2nd Fleet.
