DESCRIPTION
The Defender class is a highly successful city/base deflector shield type used over several decades. It requires a militatry grade core to sustain power. It’s exact origins has been debated for quite some time. It is widely believed was the work of the late engineer Aki Nairo who wanted to machine that can effectively protect settlements having lost his family to a brutal orbital bombardment. There are, however rumors Nairo actually stole inspiration from earlier models by others... But such claims have been dismissed. The shield projected by a Defender could protect a large area — usually a single base or city — from outside attack. The shields were sturdy enough to withstand orbital bombardment, as well. The shield could be penetrated during a ground attack, however, as the deflector shield it produced did not prevent ground forces from passing through the barrier and destroying the generator.
As a result, Defender generators needed to be strategically placed and well-defended to prevent leaving them exposed during a ground assault.
LEGALITY
Legal. Shield generators themselves are not illegal in many independent systems; However in Sith ruled territortes this type has to be registered and maintained by the authorities or trusted affiliates. INTENT
To produce a means of protecting a faction’s ground assets from outside assaults, including orbital bombardments. This is based on the Knightfall model used by the Jedi in the last timeline, a creation of @Malon OOC-wise. I received his permission to do so.ADVANCED TECH
YES. This shield generator type requires a military grade reactor core to sustain enough power to protect a base or settlement. To gain it must done through an approved plot(three to four threads) to gain or build a generator.
