Description


The Cerberus Mobile Defense Platform is a formidable defense station/battleship hybrid deployed over valuable Terran Protectorate assets. With firepower equal to a small taskforce and four wings of fighters and fighter/bombers, these 2,800-foot-long vessels are designed to detect enemy ships at extreme range and then quickly move into a defensive position to intercept them and neutralize them. Most of the time, the Protectorate hopes these stations will work as a deterrent. They are visible, large and intimidating, and the Protectorate makes no secret about where (most) of them are stationed. They are capable, in extreme circumstances, of acting like a normal ship and even have FTL capabilities, however, they are usually supplied from frequent cargo trips planetside and cannot function independently for long. About 95% of the time, they function as administrative space stations, coordinating high-orbit traffic, refueling transient vessels that do not need or want to go planetside, and working as massive customs stations and orbital star ports. They are also small military bases, that often contain the command and control for the Stellar Navy's operations in an entire star system. Here she is, completed at last! Enjoy, and let me know what you think.

Great scene and info. I'm still having a little trouble grasping the scale of the station, though. (I think, in my little mind, the window slits (?) above the landing bay makes it look more like a tenth of the scale you're talking about.) But really nice design and scene.

Those are big, floor-to-ceiling windows in the front. For scale, I placed a freighter leaving the forward docking bay.

I agree with geirla (I tend to do that. Grin). The scale is helped with the space fighters close by the bay, but I think it would look closer to the scale you are suggesting if you had a fighter actually launching from the door--with lots of room to spare. What do you think?

Another great design and yes, it is hard to show scale on something this massive.
