| Description: |
The Reglata Bombardment Cruiser is a larger version of the Toltara Destroyer designed and produced by the same ship manufacturer as the Toltara. The Reglata was meant to serve as a heavy capital ship in the Circasian fleet and to this end was armed with four dual rocket launchers, allowing the ship to fire a continuous stream of rockets at the enemy.
The expectations for the Reglata were perhaps too high, and the incredible cost of maintaining and resupplying the ship proved to be detrimental to its success. The original order of fourteen Reglatas was slashed down to only five after construction began. A few additional Reglata hulls were laid down, but not many.
The Reglatas were originally meant to serve as a heavy cruiser in the fleet but instead found themselves operating as long-range bombardment support units for larger Circasian patrol fleets.
