-AIF Flying Ship Factory, near Arcadia-

At the launching bay, the armored doors are closed over the 5km x 2km aperture. Overhead five Guardian of Hope class flying ships guard over the area, and a few A-70s patrol under cloak further off, ready for any trouble that may arise. At a raised podium, fleet admiral David Hodston steps up to speak.

Hodston: "Last time I addressed you here, we had only just begun to spring back from the dreaded attacks by Prometheus. Then, I unveiled our first flying warship to be designed and built after those attacks. Today, we rejoin the ranks of powers possessing ships of truely immense scale. Today, we need fear no enemy! People of the AIF, I give you the Pinnacle of Light class superbattleship!"

The massive armored doors have slowly opened by now, and a massive 3.5km long flying warship rises from the yard, it's blue red and gray hull gleaming in the winter sun. Its weapons include some unique features, the MCMs are in a horizontal "torpedo tube" system with only six tubes, and a rapid 10.5 battery is mounted forward near the electronic warfare prongs.

Inside the factory, work has been halted on all other flying ships as three more of this class sit in various states of conpletion, and are the focus of all work in the factory. (I figure I can make one per week for three weeks if I halt all other flying ship production, though I could make it two if needed)
