Rostok-class Project K588 Guided Missile Frigate

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.

Main Battery Weapons

  • 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

  • molnya

    Sixteen of these systems are mounted in rows of four on both sides of the ship's central superstructure and above and below, they serve as the primary anti-fighter measure for close in defense in case strikecraft have gotten past the primary missile defense measures. Each are mounted in box containers set into the ship's hull.
