User:Hereditonian/Hereditonian-Class Light Carrier

Overview
The original plans for this class of warship date back to 2499, under a Section 3 classified codename: UNREAL. It took over thirty years for the UNSC Government to finally allow to construction of two of the (not yet named) new warships. The first ship was called the Hereditonian (which gave name to the class of ship) and the second was called the Black Rainbow.

Specifications
The ships were 1094 metres long, and had an individual tonnage of 9500. There are seven hangars along the flanks of the ships, each one capable of holding five Longswords or seven Wildcats, and three main hangars within the ship, housing up to fourty Scorpions, Thirty-six Grizzlies or one hundred and ten Warthogs. Hereditonian carried (at times) up to 8000 UNSC Marines and 250 ODST Shock Troopers. Even though it was to be classed as a 'Light Carrier', it could hold almost double its mass in supplies and weapons - a formidable asset to the UNSC Navy.
