Nebulon-B2 Frigate

The Nebulon-B II frigate is nothing more than an upgraded version of the first, designed for heavier combat. It boasts more turbolaser and laser cannons, and sports a warhead launcher. The Nebulon-B II is also significantly faster than the original.

To accommodate it's increased amount of weaponry, the design of the Nebulon-B II is slightly different than the Nebulon-B. The main deck section has been split into to angled wing-like projections, providing more places to put weapon turrets. This version of the warship is also slightly shorter in length.

Unfortunately, this has caused the vessel to have a slightly lower shield and hull strength when compared to its predecessor.

Despite it's shortened length, this version of the frigate has a larger crew compliment. It also boasts a larger troop compliment, though it's fighter compliment remains the same.
