This is the Jaegar Class, Akira Heavy Gunship Variant. Named in honour of Alex Jaeger, the creator of the Akira Class, this is my version of what I believe the Akira should look like. The stock legacy one is textured appallingly.. too blue and too bland. I have created my own (Aztec) Hull plating design based on the Sovereign Hull. It makes best use of the hi res 1024x1024 Akira textures which in the stock version has hull plating too large which appears stretched ingame.
Its denoted as a gunship because well, thats what the Akira was designed to be.. Most Gunships are really corvettes or frigates with extra guns but the Akira is a type of cruiser in terms of size so lIjust call it a Heavy Gunship..(15 torpedo tubes is pretty heavy) Its also a Carrier, a point many people tend to overlook but I haven't mastered the fighter support in Legacy yet to make it a carrier :p
The stats are generally the same, except this has more cost and has all subsytems at level 1900.. It also has 20 photon torpedoes to launch so it packs a serious punch..
