Overview:
Assembly of the first Kyushu Class frigate began at the newly constructed Terada yard at Dieron in late 3053, utilizing parts produced at a number of sites around the Combine. The DCMS hopes to launch the WarShip prototype on December 14, 3057, but this timetable assumes no problems will occur during the installation of the massive interplanetary drive.
Like the Federated Commonwealth's Fox Class WarShip, the Kyushu mounts an arsenal primarily of conventional anti- fighter weaponry. Most of the Kyushu's lasers and missile systerns can engage targets up to 360 kilometers away from the frigate. A second layer of anti-missile cannons and small pulse lasers provides an 18 kilometer deep layer of defensive fire. These weapons are capable of engaging incoming short-range, long-range, and naval missiles. The Kyushu also carries a formidable array of anti-ship weapons. Most of these are naval autocannons, although the vessel also mounts some naval lasers and particle cannons. The particle cannons and some of the autocannons are accurate to 450 kilometers, but their large size prevents them from tracking and engaging fighters and other small craft.
The Kyushu contains spacious double-occupancy rooms for the crew. These quarters are divided between six decks. Each deck has its own mess hall and recreation facility, and two grav decks are provided for the crew decks and the passenger decks.
The Kyushu's 108 BattleMech cubicles are perhaps its most unusual feature. These cubicles are located in the vessel's large cargo section and can accommodate a full regiment of war machines. The Kyushu's design enables its 'Mech cargo to descend to a planet's surface in one of three ways. The first and most common is via DropShips, which can dock at one of the four hardpoints situated along the Kyushu's spine. The second option is one of the Kyushu's twelve specially modified cargo shuttles. These craft are lightly armed and armored and can transport two 'Mechs at a time. Finally, if the frigate is in low orbit, 'Mechs can be dropped directly from the Kyushu's bay doors.
