ZD302 Zakzûl Heavy Carrier

Zirakthargûm Divinity

The Zakzûl Heavy Carrier is so far the largest vessel of the new generation of Zirakthargûm starships. Like the smaller Thullzûd, it is compact for a heavy carrier. The Zakzûl carries four squadrons of fighters, yet is itself only the size of most superdreadnoughts, being perhaps three quarters of the size of most similar heavy carriers.

This compactness comes at a price, however; the Zakzûl is necessarily slow and lightly armed. Its protection, while still significant, is less than that of the dreadnoughts two-thirds its size. However, it is well protected with numerous blaster and autocannon point and interdiction defence systems, and while its plasma batteries are only modest, they can still pack a powerful punch to an overconfident foe.
