Operational profile

Recognition and use

The Cyclops is an eight-hundred-ton missile arsenal ship with Jump-2 range, three-gravity acceleration, advanced electronics, six missile banks, and deep magazines. Mixed defensive turrets and an armed personnel boat protect the thirty-person crew while the main battery delivers massed stand-off attacks.

Twenty staterooms, ten low berths, and fuel scoops support deployment with a fleet, but weapons and ammunition leave only a 26-ton hold. The ship is a specialized combatant whose effectiveness depends on escorts, targeting support, and regular rearming.
