Ships

C'hakilians have only three major types of ship in production; the Warship, the Corvette, and the fighter. Little is known about any other classes such as the Shipyards and Fleet Command Station.

	The Warship is roughly 4/5 the size of a Defiant class starship, but is much more heavily armed. The Warship is a good match for a Prometheus class vessel in a pitched battle. Four heavy pulse phasers mounted in the front of the ship pack a punch that is comparable to the phasers on a Defiant. Two aft torpedo launchers can provide good cover for retreat and the forward launch tube fires anti-matter warheads much like the photon torpedo. These by itself does not make the attack ship the fearsome ship it is known to be. The most powerful weapon on the attack ship is the protomatter stream projector (PSP).
	The Corvette has two heavy pulse phasers which are mounted on a rotating turret. One is on the top, the other is on the belly of the ship. The Corvette has a sleek design, and can maneuver well in atmosphere. Its main duty is to act as an anti-fighter weapon platform using a point-defense system. The anti-fighter weapon is a tractor/repulser beam that rips at a fighter's structure. This weapon is nearly useless against large ships that have more powerful structural integrity fields. Federation fighters, however, have weak ones. Many of these weapons line the hull of the Corvette.
	C'hakilian fighters do not have pilots. the C'hakilians have developed a complex computer system able to match abilities with a good Federation pilot. The computer, however, will use mostly the same tactics throughout a battle, making it easy to guess its next move. Because of this, partial memory wipes are needed after a few battles; memory wipes cause a fighter to lose its experience and some of its fighting ability, but do not allow for the computer to obtain bad habits. The fighters work in much the same way as the orbital weapon platforms used by Cardassians during the Dominion War, but have their own internal power source.
	The C'hakilian spacestation once construction is completed is a huge complex armed with two PSP's, the point-defense system, and 60 of the C'hakilian equivalent of type X phasers. There are an average of 5 squadrons of droid fighters (60 fighters). A garrison of 600 troops man the station along with 1200 regulars. Regulars are the people who run the day-to-day activities and have approximately the same military structure as their Federation counterparts (see Ranks). On average, a garrison of three attack ships also protect the station.
