[NOTE: The data presented below has been kept intact in its original form. Admiral Doomsday, who designed the EH's modified CRV Phantom while serving as Recon Officer, attained Fleet Admiral before the end of his career... This same modified Corvette was later rechristened the CRV Doomsday in his honour, and continues to serve the fleet's Recon Officers to this day...]



A new custom-built Modified Corvette has been constructed for the Recon Officer's use on extended recon missions... The EH Reconnaissance Officer (CS-12), AD Doomsday (bauyeun@io.org) personally designed the specifications detailed below...

The Hammer has taken delivery of a new Modified Corvette from Shadow Works. This new craft has been designed to fill a specialized covert operations role in the Emperor's Hammer. Among its duties will be monitoring Rebel movements, insertion/extraction of operatives, long range exploration, and electronic intelligence gathering. The Phantom will be used by the Recon Officer, his Assistant, or the ISB Liaison Officer when on assignment.

While the new craft, named the Phantom, superficially resembles the veteran Corellian crafts, this craft is some twenty meters longer and five meters wider than the standard Modified Corvettes. Imperial Engineers took a stock Modified corvette and increased the hull size in order to provide for larger engines, increased firepower, and a heavier hull. The new KDY-0541c propulsion system has drastically increased the ship's top sublight speed to between 42 and 45 MGLT depending on how the craft is loaded.

Sensor Countermeasures:
  • Hull coated with Sensor Absorbing Materiel (SAM)
  • Morph-Matrix Transponder
  • Low observability color scheme
  • Orbital Nightcloak

Usage: Restricted to Reconnaissance Officer and his/her Assistant, and the ISB Liaison Officer except with direct authorization from the Fleet Commander.

Special Features:
The exterior hull has been coated with a low-observability sensor absorbing material giving the ship an extremely low sensor-cross section, making it appear as a sensor ghost. In addition, the craft has been fitted with a Morph-Matrix Transponder allowing the ship's transponder to be changed to that of any type of vessel, or simply de-activated, in the event that the ship is detected and scanned with an interrogator. (see p.232, Star Wars Universe Book by Bill Slavicsek) The ship is also equipped with an Orbital Nightcloak prototype for atmospheric operations.

Fighters:
While Modified Corvettes have the capacity to carry 1 fighter in their bays, since the Phantom has an increased hull size, that number has been increased to three. In addition, an external rack has been added to allow an additional three fighters to be carried externally, giving the Phantom a total fighter complement of six. However, since fighters mounted on external racks are not coated with the sensor-absorbing materiel (SAM), fighters are not carried externally unless the situation warrants it. The Phantom carries one Phalanx-Interceptor Gunboat, one TIE Defender, and one Escort Shuttle. (All of which are coated with the SAM)

Sensors:
The Phantom has been fitted with special sensor analyzers that are capable of detecting, tracking, and analyzing over 1,000 independent targets simultaneously. The Phantom can also detect and track jumps to Hyperspace, as well as map systems, and analyze other stellar phenomenon. The Phantom also has a large communications setup for intercepting and decoding enemy messages. The Phantom's communications array is capable of intercepting a message, determining the origin and destination, and decoding any one of over 4 billion encryption schemes, as well as translating messages in foreign languages into Basic.

Weaponry:
The Phantom's Turbolaser system has been overhauled to produce a higher fire rate (approximately 1.8 times greater) and is capable of tracking the fastest Rebel and Imperial Targets. Three turbolasers have been added, in addition to an additional warhead launcher.

Defensive Systems:
The new powerplant has generated higher amounts of power, giving the shields a higher rating of 150 SBD as opposed to 100 SBD for the standard Modified Corvette. The Hull has also been beefed-up to 75 RU.

Crew:
The Phantom carries a larger crew than the standard Modified Corvette, with a total of 120 crewmembers. In addition, the Phantom carries a special compliment of 15 CompForce and 15 ISB technicians to man the special equipment. There is also a contingent of 20 Zero-G stormtroopers on the ship for greater defense against boarding, and for covert operations.

Hyperdrive:
The Phantom has been fitted with a high-speed jump engine, which allows it to make rapid jumps. The Phantom only requires two minutes recharge between jumps, and it's nav computer is capable of quickly calculating multiple jumps in less than five seconds.
