Valiance-class destroyer

The Core Systems Republic Navy began to produce the Valiance-class destroyer in 2470 as a partial response to the Spartan People's Navy Phalanx-class destroyer, which was a sluggish but brutal combatant alongside their Marathon-class battleships. Production of the Republic Navy's Kyrie-class battleship would not begin for almost five more years - and the Ramsgott wouldn't be designed until almost 2486 - and yet the CSRN had need for a fast capitol ship that could fight off Spartan battlegroups and flee if necessary.

More than a tenth of the Valiance's hull is taken up with drive systems and the power plants to run them. The engineering department is cramped and confined - in one shipboard engagement during the Core Systems-Spartan War, Republic Marines held off enemy boarders attacking the CSRS Ramesses for thirty hours by fortifying the engineering section and setting up multiple chokepoints for the Spartan marines to struggle past.
