| - | Among the various items that where brought into existance by the 00840 Armaments Standardization Plan, the Rostock Class Frigate is the smallest of the vessels that came about as a result of the Asp. Like its counterparts it was designed as a multipurpose vessel intended to either serve as part of a fleet component (its primary role being perimeter defense) or as a solitary patrol vessel with enough capability to look after itself as well as handle a variety of missions. Unlike its larger cousins however the vessel lacks a significant spinal mounted weapon system, instead opting for a single set of large munition launchers. This was done both to save weight as well as reduce the cost of vessel, a bonus of this was the increase in hull space allowing for a larger multi-mission bay system. As a result it is the smallest ship with the secondary capability of carrying and deploying troops.  | ||

| - | ===== Armaments ===== | ||
| - | Below are the various weapon systems with their mounting style and configurations described. | ||
| - | <WRAP group> | ||
| - | <WRAP half column>  | ||
| - | ==== Main Battery Weapons ==== | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:35a15-970-n_family_of_directed_plasma_weapons#a15-970-n1_130mm_bozar_compressed_plasma_cannon|35A15-970-N1 130mm 'Bozar' Compressed Plasma Cannons]]\\ **(6x Gun Systems)**\\ The frigate mounts three twin gun turret systems in a triple configuration in which all three systems can fire forward at once. Two are mounted on sponsons that are side mounted on the hull just forward of the ship's engine section and just behind the ship's hanger door, the final system is mounted on a tower jutting down from the ship's hull from a similar distance to the other two guns. | ||
| - | ==== Point Defense/Anti-Aircraft Systems ==== | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:molnya]]\\ **(2x Gun Systems)**\\ Two of these mixed anti-aircraft platforms are present on the frigate, one atop the hull and one on the underside. The topside system is located just behind the ship's missile magazines and is intended to cover the ship from topside incoming threats. The other is mounted just behind the ship's underside gun turret, however its ability to defend forward is limited due to the ship's gun. As such this must be taken into consideration when maneuvering in combat situations.  | ||

| - | <WRAP half column>  | ||
| - | ==== Launchers and Munitions ==== | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:pact_missiles_and_rockets:common_canister_launch_system_family|31A17-835V 'Leva' CMVLS System]]\\ **(24 Cells)**\\ The frigate employs twenty-four Leva launch cells with all located on top of the vessel's superstructure. Naturally this system makes up half of the ship's primary long range striking capability as well as the majority of its defenses. | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:pact_missiles_and_rockets:atrop_sraam|2x Atrop Missile Sub-Cartridges]]\\ (2,904 Missiles Total) | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:pact_missiles_and_rockets:asper_mraam|2x Asper Missile Sub-Cartridges]]\\ (2,904 Missiles Total)  | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:pact_missiles_and_rockets:moonjeni_lrgpm|10x Moojeni Missile Sub-Cartridges]]\\ (1,620 Missiles Total)  | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:pact_missiles_and_rockets:starburn_lram|10x Starburn Missile Sub-Cartridges]]\\ (90 Missiles Total) | ||
| - | *18x 2500 mm Launch Tubes\\ Arguably the heaviest hitting munitions on board, the frigate's bow is solely occupied by eighteen single shot torpedo launchers. These can only be reloaded outside of combat conditions, however they can also be 'multipacked' with smaller mission munitions or stacked with smaller shorter torpedo systems.  | ||
| - | *[[colonial_pact:armaments:pact_missiles_and_rockets:starfish_1_torp|Sn90VN 'Starfish-1' A-HAST Torpedo]]\\ (18x Torpedoes) | ||

| - | ==== Power and Propulsion ==== | ||
| - | The Fromm employs a mixed power/propulsion unit with a single reactor typically providing the startup power to ignite the ship's propulsion units, then these combined systems provide power to operate the ships systems at standard capacity and beyond. As a result these systems and the sub-components tied into them are located in close proximity, in the case of the Fromm class at the rear of the vessel further details are below. | ||
| - | <WRAP group> | ||
| - | <WRAP half column> | ||
| - | === Power === | ||
| - | The starship employs a single large [[colonial_pact:technologies:colonial_pact_common_liquid_fuel_fusion_reactor_clffr|CLFFR type]] fusion powerplant employing a high density liquid metallic hydrogen fuel source fed into a ten meter diameter containment vessel. Employ electromagnetic and gravity pinching mechanisms to squeeze the stream to the point of high density fusion, the reactor effectively maintains a meter diameter sphere of fusing fuel akin to a small star during operations. The extreme heat and radiative energy given off by this body is converted directly into usable energy by the interior lining of the reaction chamber, with roughly three quarters of it going to this paneling with the rest being cooling and reaction stopping mechanisms.  | ||
| - | |||
| - | However when the reactors are not active the ship can rely on a number of [[colonial_pact:technologies:colonial_pact_common_callenite_energy_capacitor_ccec|capacitor systems]] and [[colonial_pact:technologies:colonial_pact_common_fission_thermal_battery_cftb|long lived fission-thermal type power generation devices]]. The latter of which are located strategically throughout the ship to reduce the chance of all of them being knocked out by one attack or incident.  | ||
| - | </WRAP> | ||
| - | <WRAP half column> | ||
| - | === Propulsion === | ||
| - | Three main propulsion units of the [[colonial_pact:technologies:cmisfd|CMISFD-type]] provide forward directional thrust for the starship. Steerage is provided by a mixture of electromagnetic and mechanical ducting of the main drive array aided by strategically placed strike craft grade CMISFD-type thrusters. While active these drive systems also provide a percentage of their output as power to the ship's electrical grid. These systems are governed based on whether or not the starship is in atmosphere, however while in a gravity well the ship may employ its centrally mounted [[colonial_pact:technologies:cgrd|gravitic repulsion drive]] to hover in atmosphere. Effectively allowing it to conduct operations without the need to use direct thrust during the duration of its stay in a gravity well. For faster then light travel the destroyer employs a point to point fold drive of [[colonial_pact:technologies:cftld|Colonial Pact design and manufacture]]. Like most systems of this type it is restricted to use outside of the central portion of a star's hillsphere.  | ||
