Description
Eagle Industries
Welcome to Eagle Industries, a startup company that brings you the best brand spanking new military hardware out there. If you're looking for an honest, environmentally responsible product; you've come to the right place!

Class description
Stealth ships are a unique set of vessels within Eagle Industries. The class consists out of three vessels: The Stalker class Patrol Boat, the Banshee class Corvette and the Spectre class Missile Destroyer. All three have their unique perks, attributes, strengths and limitations. As size increases, the overall stealth decreases. However: The sleek hulls, minimal heat production, full alloy hulls, limited propulsion and the absence of large turrets means that compared to equal size warships, these stealth ships have lower detection ranges. This in turn increases chances that an enemy will not detect the warship. Whenever the ship is detected, the intricate design of the ships increase the chance of spoofing missiles and torpedoes, as well as making it harder for trackers to lock onto the vessel.

The ship
The Banshee is a small corvette, primarily designed for long range patrols and supporting missions. It's best known for being part of the SS fleet, but with most designs; the export version is inferior to the original. Compared to the Steel Striders' version of the Banshee, the Eagle Industries has comparable stats, both firepower and stealthiness. However, she carries a more powerful twin gasturbine powerplant alongside its reactors, meaning the ships' defences are of increased power. Furthermore, missile defences are more advanced, with specially designed "Hook" class anti-missile flares.

The result is a ship that is nearly immune to missiles and torpedoes, if not RG guided. Against projectiles she fares less well, and one may hope that the enemy carries inferior detection. Under the right circumstances, this ship can be almost invisible to the enemy.


Basic stats:
Cost: 100k
L/W/H: 71m / 15m / 15m
Speed: 25m/s
Turningcircle: 310m
Firepower: 50
Armament:
Torpedoes: 8M torpedoes in fore and aft launchers, 2.8km range
Missiles: 16M VLS missiles with 3km range, 16S VLS AA missiles with 2km range
Armour: 2m alloy/metal armour

My god is this ship perfect for early game. So far, it has easily taken on the Deep Water Guard and come through with only a few bruises. I highly recommend this for early game/new players.

One of my favorite ships to spam when my designs are failing me (so like always...)
I like that they're so small, hit hard, and can take an absolute thrashing.
