Biography:

The U.S.S. Atraiu was designed as a ship to repel large space-borne invaders such as the Doomsday machine encountered by the USS Enterprise in 2267. She was nicknamed "The Doomsday Destroyer".The Atraiu is outfitted with phasers, experimental pulse phasers and an enhanced version of the photon torpedo. Even if these weapons are useless against a neutronium hull, they will rip most other TOS era ships to shreds. Despite being powerful, the Atraiu cannot defeat or will have a tough time destroying an Excelsior class vessel.

In BC:

This is a most impressive ship, combining elements from ENT, TOS and JJ to create the Atraiu and it gave me great joy to do the majority of the hardpointing for this. The textures are all one map, making this a very small download and the model is not a major graphics hog either. Because she's a big lass, she iss a bit sluggish on the turning, so if you're in a nippy little ship, get round its aft where its got very little weaponry. Depsite her being only slightly bigger than a TOS Connie, she's a lot bulkier and nowhere near as skinny, giving her weight so have fun when you try turning her. :P 



Bugs:
None.
