The Enterprise class were the largest pure fighter carriers in use during the Third Civil War. They are designed to carry 18 squadrons of starfighters (216 fighters total), more than any other Earth Fleet vessel except for Star Control Ships. These Battle Carriers were equipped with a second-generation gravity drive, (which can generate jump points and gravity shields, but not propulsion), an auxilliary ion drive, long range Lance Torpedoes to give fire support to her fighters and the fleet, and a mix of heavy Chemlasers and Grav Lasers for short-range combat.
