All three of our Heavy Escort Carriers bring the firepower you need - the Alita Class Heavy Escort Carrier, the Qa’Tel Flight Deck Raptor and the Jhu’ael Tactical Warbird Carrier. All three of these ships come equipped with a special console and can unlock a new starship trait at level 5 Starship Mastery. Below are the stats for these new Tier 6 starships will be released at the same time as the standard Tier 6 versions.
The tier 6 Alita Class Heavy Escort Carrier is based upon the highly successful Armitage Class design.

Q: Why isn’t the Qa’Tel Flight Deck Raptor’s Destabilized Tachyon Emitters console part of a set?
