Nagi MkII After Action Evaluation and Specifications
MkII pecification Craft deployed alongside Jackal MkII and Strix MkII squadrons with additional support from Magus and Dragoon command destroyers in Eugales and Archavoinet during anti-piracy operations, and continued belligerence from CONCORD DERAIL/Red Troop. Testing has proven Craft specification to perform well above projected targets, increasing long term survivability. Additional Note: C-Des inclusion in squadron deployment tactics has sharply reduced infomorph capture rates amongst fallen pilots, with C-Des units fitted with MJF units able to close into the thick of fighting when a squadron is overwhelmed and act as a safe relay for the nano-second transfer times of pilot consciousnesses.MkI specification Nagi craft previously heavily relied on self-repair systems and thick shielding, difficulties with feeding both its remote repair, self-repair, and twin-linked carbine identified. Solutions sought turned up many interesting avenues for improvement with assistance of Warmind Glitter Edifice.
Initial design’s power system was noted to be relatively haphazard, powered by an outdated and overworked fusion centrifuge. Upgrading the central reactor to a more modern Lai Dai ‘Kuroki’ Graviton Reactor, with an integrated Core Temperature Regulator, and a modified and truncated Propel Dynamics ‘Jintai’ Scalar Capacitor Bank, stabilizing the power draw issues of maintaining the extensive systems in place in the Nagi base design, and freeing up space for other system upgrades and total rework of the propulsion system, allowing room for a compact microwarp drive system to supplement its already notable base acceleration.
Twin-Linked Plasma Carbine replaced with a modified Twin Compressed Blaster Cannon originally slated for deployment on MAVs in Urban Pacification Operations, this large weapon, sometimes nicknamed a plasma punch, uses a walled centrifugal well to simultaneously shunt dozens of plasma charges, generating a wide-pattern plasma burst that is highly effective over short distances, with each weapon firing alternately to reduce heat buildup within the weapons’ cyclotrons
The Healbeam Repair and Energizer system has been replaced by an Interbus Designed Ancillary Emergency Recovery and Repair System, while the basic functionality remains the same, it can also use a magazine of Condenser Packs, apparently based on Upwell Designs, to provide bursts of extremely high output for a limited number of cycles to provide repairs to larger ships, albeit with a need to resupply between usages of such high output repairs
Previous Compressed Plating upgrade for Nagi noted to be of reasonable viability, though lacking in real improvement on strength to weight ratio. Upgraded Crystalline Carbonide Compressed Plating commonly found on Thalia class logistics frigates provided a solution, increasing armor strength to weight ratio. Shield emitter of base Nagi design identified to be largely subpar, and replaced with a singular Ishukone designed RD-5100 Sustained Shield Emitter. These upgrades together give the MkII greatly improved under fire survivability.
Radiance Burst Area Effect Nanite Projector proved to be most challenging. Very difficult to keep intact with other upgrades, despite improvements to power systems and reactor. Solution provided by Warmind Glitter Edifice. Radiance Burst system was reworked into an external charge based design able to be ejected from craft after depletion, specifications created and tooled entirely to Warmind Glitter Edifice’s detailed input, allowing an ultralight, disposable system. Novelty of design not lost on current design teams…
Addendum: Due to Glitter Edifice’s particular nature, it is
not recommendedstrongly encouraged that She be included in future design projects. The Warmind’s design process has provenvery difficult to work around, to the detriment of design teamsunique, and effective. We strongly urge the directorship toreassign workers to cover for currently indisposed team members caught in the Warmind’s Design processkeep current workers assigned to project, and open further design teams to her bandwidth.
Director’s Addendum: Glitter Edifice, Please Do Not Edit Official Addendums From Design Team. Their Obligations Are Clear In Their Contracts, As Are Your Own.
