Bishamonten-class Assault Cruiser

Bishamonten-class Large Cruiser

"I don't know what some of the other guys call them, but we call them 'pocket battleships', mostly cos somebody just cut a chunk outta a Osiris to make this"

- Ensign Jack 'Stomper' Tyrell

The Bishamonten-class Large Cruiser where upgunned and upscaled Ares-class Battlecruiser, designed to combat the growing number of Remnant Grand and Super Cruisers. The ship is larger than Grand cruiser classifications, but inferior in size to Super Cruisers, being a midway point in size. The ship is aggressive designed, being a singular prow with the Super MAC supported by its two turreted companions on the deck and keel of the ship. While it features no hangars for fighters, it does sport a over abundance of Archer pods and point defence weapons, allowing it to bring considerable firepower to the battlefield. Due to its relatively large reactor, it can operate at full power for longer and recharge is main gun faster.

UNSC Comments
'Chances are, if this thing goes toe to toe with a super cruiser, its going to blow holes in that mother fucker. Only takes two es-mac strikes to take its shielding, then its game over.'

'Its officially supposed to take on enemy light capital ships, but hell, this things great for cutting up swathes of smaller warships, especially cruisers.'
