With a steady flow of trade established with the Jackalite Trade Confederation, the United Coalition of Organized Nations, the Democration Coalition, the Erutian Empire and the Aschen Confederation of Planets, as well as having received generous funding from a myriad of wealthy Terran donors and philanthropists, the Terran National Government set out to create a navy for itself, seeking to better defend the planet and her inter-solar borders from the imminent threats beyond. Military leaders approached Doctor Cleo Eriaji and his NOVA team about designing Terran battleships with lethal technology as original and unique as the planet they would defend. Before long, the Terran military had released the first line of ships that would aspire to become the mighty fleet protecting Terran freedom everywhere.
With shipyards scattered all over Terra and in various other locations in the Sol System, the TNG feeds a constant supply of resources to its various manufacturers to build the Terran fleet as effectively as possible. Three defensive docking stations are currently in the works for building: one, to encompass a large portion of Terra's moon, another to orbit mars, the last to take residency in Saturn's various rings. For the time being, the Terran fleet docks itself in various stable location throughout the Sol System, always maintaining a watchful garrison over Terra as whole.
Total Trireme Battleship Count: 313
Total Seraphim Carrier Count:
Type 2C: 209
Type 1C: 4
Seraphim 3C and Paladin fighters are outfitted in each carrier and Trireme.

TRIREME GUNSHIP
The staple battleship of the Terran Space Navy, the Trireme Gunship is the perfect blend of agile speed and obliterating firepower
Length: 800 M
Crew: 6,000 (Officers, Engineers, Crewmen and Marines)
Build: Titanium Frame, Tungsten-Steel Hull
Shields: FIM-54x Energy-Particle Shield, 5A Caliber Capacitor Shield, PSIlock Inhibitor Shields, ManaTech C191 Wards
Arsenal: 200 Gauss Turrets scattered about the ship's exterior
100 Intracluster Medium Plasma Cannons
4 Ion-Stabilizing Electromagnetic Railguns
3 Heavy-Artillery DECs (Directed Energy Cannons)
1 Energy-Mass Singularity Compressor
The Trireme's greatest weapon is no cannon or gun. Through the use of energy-magnetosphere shielding and ion-stabilization technology, the Trireme can effectively ram into enemy battleship, inflicting maximum damage. The tip of the Trireme (called the pike) is energized through a series of concentrated energy-particle Shields, keeping the Trireme and its crew protected from the force of the collision; whereas the ion stabilizers work to reduce enemy shields when close enough. Upon impact, massive shock waves of pummeling 'seismic' waves are continuously emitted from a force generator at the tip of the pike, continuously beating against the hull of the enemy ship, and, when broken, at its interior. The Trireme is capable of cutting clean-through enemy battleships, leaving gaping holes in whatever it smashes into.

Known for its speed and unique boarding technologies, the Seraphim Carrier is an important part of Terran Naval transportation.
Length: Class 3C - 50 M / Class 2C - 900 M / Class 3C - 1500 M
Crew: Class 3C - Carries up to 100 Troopers / Class 2C - Carries up to 50,000 Troopers / Class 3C Carries up to 200,000 Troopers
Build: Neo-Steel Frame, Steel-Carbon Hull
Shields: FIM-54x Energy-Particle Shield, 130xYW Deflector Shield
Arsenal: Class 3C - 15 Gauss Turrets, Aegis Wormhole Frame-Defender, Ion-Impervium Power Drill / Class 2C - 80 Gauss Turrets, 10 Defender-Type Plasma Cannons, Ion-Impervium Power Drill / Class 1C - 300 Gauss Turrets, 30 Defender-Type Plasma Cannons, 2 Heavy-Artillery DEC, Ion-Impervium Power Drill
The Seraphim Carrier utilized aerospace technologies and gravity-flux propellants to move at unreal speeds and maneuver with incredible agility. Aside from acting as a transport, the Seraphim can also magnetize itself to an enemy hull if close enough and drill into the ship using its ion shielded fractional-point impervium drill, allowing for vacuum-sealed troops to quickly launch an assault into the interior of the ship. Seraphim Classes 2C and 3C are equipped with extensive medical centers far more generous then those of its Trireme counterparts, and Class 3C maintains extensive dormitory quarters, many of them designed for the luxury and comfort of higher-ranking occupants.

The nimble starfighters of the Terran Navy, Paladin II Fighters are loaded up by the hundreds and thousands into Triremes and Seraphim alike, ready to be deployed at any moment.
Length: 10 M
Crew: 1 Terran Pilot
Build: Titanium-alloy hull
Shields: 20xYW Deflector Shields
Arsenal: Twin Rapid Fire Super-Heated Gauss Cannons
15 'Chaser' Targeting Plasma Missiles
5 Super-Charged Proton Bombs
Like the Seraphim Carrier, the Paladin II utilized aerospace technologies and gravity-flux propellants to accelerate through space at extremely high velocities. Its lower gravity resistance makes it extremely agile and allows it to maneuver with considerable dexterity in all environments. With a built-in hyperdrive generator, the Paladin II can enter slip-space on its own, negating the need to dock at a carrier for intergalactic travel. The Paladin II can function in atmospheric conditions as well as it can vacuum conditions.
