Maelstrom (ship)

Maelstrom

Maelstrom was the flagship of the Galactic Alliance Navy and the New Jedi Order. It was also the flagship of Jonac Lecersen, the head of both organizations.

History
Maelstrom was designed from the success of the Executor-class Super Star Destroyer. She was designed by the Kuat Drive Yards and by the Fondor shipyards, as Jonac's parents were the CEOs of both companies. It was designed to be even larger than the Executor or Eclipse-class and the two companies succeeded in creating the largest ship ever recorded. Her hull was made from the common metal farium, but the bridge and the shield deflector domes were built with quantum-crystalline armor, and her life support systems and engines were built with beskar armor.

Battle of Thyferra
When the Empire attacked the planet of Thyferra, Jonac led the Maelstrom and her accompanying fleet to the rescue. It was noted during the space battle that ensued that the ship could easily hold off any ship crazy enough to attack her, and also bombard the planets surface at the same time. It was also determined that she could reach upper atmosphere, but could not descend onto the planet's surface.

Weapons and Systems
Maelstrom was equipped with over 10,000,000 weapons. It was also the first ship of its class, so it had many more systems that the two ships that followed didn't have. She was the only one equipped with a Stealth field generator, but the armor used to make up the bridge, deflector shield generator, life support systems, and engines were incorporated into her sister ships, Gargantuan and Anakin Skywalker. One of the main traits of the ship was fourteen gravity well projectors located randomly on the ship's hull
