Sundance class destroyer
The Sundance-class marks first concerted effort to construct a true pan-belt naval vessel. The vessels sport a modular deck plan surrounded by an almost skeletal frame. Though outwardly their lack of exterior armor leaves them exposed to fire their modular design makes them surprisingly resilient in practice. Each two deck high module is equipped with its own air and water supply as well as internally connected airlocks. Making any one section of the ship a virtual lifeboat in an emergency. Its unique double hulled design makes nearly all of it primary systems redundant for combat purposes.
Following the formal recognition of the Confederation of Belt Colonies recognition by governments of earth and mars and the subsequent signing of the Treaty of New Olympia the belt was faced with the reality that they would have to modernize their disparate fleet in order to protect their newfound freedom. With a limited number of hulls and a limitation on the sizes of ships they could build various companies set to work drafting design proposals. In 2227 Psyche Shipyards produced the design that would become the Sundance class and by 2229 CCS Sundance would launch from Psyche orbital dock 15.
Over their thirty years of service the Sundance class has proven to be a rugged at reliable vessel that has helped clear pirates from the inner belt. The vessels remain a prominent symbol of power and unity throughout the belt to this day.
