   Comments: Designed to support the large line-of-battle ships in the fleet, the Akrzhdiats-class heavy cruiser is close to being a line-of-battle ship itself. With type R Meson Gun, 25 missile bays, 20 particle accelerator bays and factor-10 hull armor, this vessel can dish out its fair share of damage. Having been in service for almost 7 years, there have been 295 of these vessels produced thus far, with more being completed regularly.
