Description: |
The Sussex class of carriers was the largest Federation carriers of its day. Able to transport and deploy twenty-four fighters and/or combat shuttles, the Sussex was a major investment for a Federation still recovering from war with the Klingon Empire.
Sussex Carriers acted as the command and control elements of their task forces, hanging back and directing the battle from a safe distance. The limited offensive firepower of the Sussex Carrier also helped to make it less of a priority target, helping to ensure their survival in combat.
