Description

The Confederate Class DropShip was once the standard lance transport of the SLDF. Resembling a scaled down Union, it employs advanced technology such as Endo Steel internal structure and Ferro-Fibrous armor and is significantly more sophisticated than the ancient Leopard Class.

The Confederate is well-known for its versatility, as the bays that are nominally meant to launch and house AeroSpace Fighters can hold any variety of alternate cargo. This usually comes in the form of an additional two BattleMechs.

Armament

With a loadout of nine Large Lasers and twelve Medium Lasers, the Confederate lacks the diverse armament and punch of the Leopard Class DropShip. However, its 46 tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor offer far superior protection, and the nature of its weapons ensures that ammunition is never an issue. This, coupled with the Confederate's efficient use of fuel, makes it a very self-sufficient vehicle capable of extended independent operations.
