  • The MA12-class was a Gorn Alliance class VI cruiser starship in service in the 23rd century. The original MA-12 was a cruiser design that crewed 120 Gorn, officers and men, and a later MA-12-D model variation increased this capacity to 136. Vessels of this class measured 115 meters in length, 81 meters in width and 40 meters in height. The initial mass of the basic design was 50,000 metric tons. The MA-12 warp engines were GWC type, while the D model had engines of the GWD-1 type. Basic MA-12 vessels were rated to cruise at warp factor 6 (OCU) and max out at warp factor 7, with the D ships possessing increased capacity for warp 8. The MA-12 impulse engines were of the GIC type, with a corresponding increase to GIF-3 type in the D model. The standard MA-12 weapons had four GBL-3 blaster emi

  • The MA12-class was a Gorn Alliance class VI cruiser starship in service in the 23rd century. The original MA-12 was a cruiser design that crewed 120 Gorn, officers and men, and a later MA-12-D model variation increased this capacity to 136. Vessels of this class measured 115 meters in length, 81 meters in width and 40 meters in height. The initial mass of the basic design was 50,000 metric tons. The MA-12 warp engines were GWC type, while the D model had engines of the GWD-1 type. Basic MA-12 vessels were rated to cruise at warp factor 6 (OCU) and max out at warp factor 7, with the D ships possessing increased capacity for warp 8. The MA-12 impulse engines were of the GIC type, with a corresponding increase to GIF-3 type in the D model. The standard MA-12 weapons had four GBL-3 blaster emitters, with forward, port and starboard firing arcs, and were defended by GSF model deflector shields. The uprated MA-12-D had expanded ship-mounted weapon capabilities, with six GBL-7 blaster emitters, covering aft, forward, port and starboard firing arcs. The vessels had added a projectile weapon, two GP-2 missile launchers with forward firing arcs, and were defended by GSH model deflector shields.
