Operational profile

Recognition and use

The Bastion is a three-hundred-ton system-defense carrier with eight points of armor, advanced electronics, a meson-gun bay, mixed defensive turrets, and three point-defense lasers. Its embarked transfer launch moves personnel and equipment beyond the carrier's immediate reach.

A fifteen-person crew, armory, medical support, repair drones, fuel processing, and a 55.5-ton hold support local patrol and combat operations. With no jump drive, the ship is tied to its assigned system unless moved by a larger carrier.
