SDN World/Miratia/Kraken-class SSG
Revision as of 17:11, 24 March 2009 by RyanThunder (talk | contribs) (Kraken-class SSGK moved to Kraken-class SSG: 'SSK' is an outdated classification, and therefore, 'SSG' is more appropriate than 'SSGK'. Not to mention, shorter.)
A diesel-electric hunter-killer submarine that can launch guided missiles to engage aircraft and surface vessels.
The Kraken-class is a Miratian designed hunter-killer submarine, built for naval defense. Since it would only operate within and around Frequesue, the design sacrifices endurance in favour of firepower, and detection capability. As a result of this, it lacks the range necessary to engage in intercontinental operations, but carries a large store of missiles and torpedoes.
