Alcubierre Drive-equipped escort carrier, fitted with two grav drums to accommodate a full squadron's worth of aircrew and maintenance personnel. This model depicts a craft of the UCSA Navy, with eight F-140D Super Slamcats embarked. The most common large combat spacecraft operated by human nations, escort carriers are used to provide fighter support to strikers. They are also commonly used by less-wealthy nations, given the cost-effectiveness of only needing to purchase and maintain a single Alcubierre drive to deploy a squadron of aerospace fighters.
