Description
The York was based on extensive refits of six Riga-class frigates Kerensky managed to take with his fleet for Exodus. Eventually these led to the construction of new warships maintained mainly by Clan Nova Cat, who was the only Clan who used them during the invasion of the Inner Sphere, but also Clan Ghost Bear and Clan Smoke Jaguar.[2]
Armament
Unlike many other ships the York-class has extensive anti-fighter weaponry, featuring 24 Small Lasers as well as ER Lasers and AC/10s for better long-range protection. The York however also has an impressive array of Naval weapons and great armor.[2]
Cargo
York cargo capacity is devoted to 50 fighters in 2 bays and additional 3 support crafts in third bay, being up to 67 167 tons of cargo including two additional dropships that can be carried on two landing zones in front section of the ship.[2]
