Matsuwa-class

(if you noticed.. yeah i did some fixing)
notes:
• if the ship and/or the speed gauge jitters, simply reduce throttle until its back to normal.
• always activate Locked Heading
• max safe ascend throttle input is 25%.
• use translation mode controls for precision manouvering & descend

Emerging during the later stages of the 1st Interplanetary war, Matsuwa-class are rigid build and heavily modified version of the Isokaze assault destroyer, intended to fill the role of AA-ship as there are massive lack of decent AA cover among UN fleets. But as time went on it was more commonly treated as a light frigate or even gunboat. The class is known for being highly manouverable and hard to hit, and proved to be a menace for the marines as one is enough to deter enemy personnels, and some being modified to carry more torpedos.

In terms of firepower, while definitely not in the same league as a space battleship, Matsuwa class are essentially escort ships, equipped with an Angel's Hair turret protecting the bridge, plenty of standard issue AA guns, and a handful of torpedo load. These smol ships saw various service from fleet AA to simple transport. And later, like most other ships of her time, the class were considered outdated ever since introduction of the wave motion engine, and later many were refitted into gunboats.

For the bridge, its windows were designed to improve visibility and also survivability, protecting the six bridge crews from hazards but still makes it possible to see the surrounding. This of course, is because the ship's small size makes it unable to be equipped with stronger sensors.

(i guess)
• irrelevant but oo my own design ship in juno
• mix of SBYamato pre-WM ship design language, and of course, WW2 "escort ship" (frigate).

• lorewise the ship have four liveries and that being
