The Foch class is a smaller, faster carrier designed to operate independently of the fleet. She carries only thirteen squadrons of starfighters (156 fighters total, primarily Warhawks and Crusaders), but is equipped with an armament superior to any heavy cruiser, including ten heavy chemlasers and a massive 2½-meter Grav Laser. She is equipped with a first-generation gravity drive, which can generate jump points for hyperspace travel independent of jump gates but not grav shields or propulsion, and it has a very powerful ion drive system for high-accelleration maneuvering in normal space.
