Matriarch-class Battlecruiser

The massive Sinicyan Matriarch Carrier is as much a flagship as it is a carrier, serving within the Sinicyan Matriarchy. Measuring almost 2 kilometers it is one of the largest ships of its category. Its voluminous hull can hold up to 8 squadrons of starfighters and other ships along with support staff, suplies and equipment.

 Two large prongs that form the ship's bow provide cover for launching ships as well as the carrier itself, lined with a multitude of point defense cannons and flak batteries. In addition a set of heavy long range batteries surrounding the ship's rear section provide additional protection to the command modules and detract enemy capital ships from getting in too close.
