Runabout "Wyvern" from the U.S.S. Manticore, NCC-5852-A
Propulsion
The Wyvern uses a dual impulse reactor drive with a maximum speed of 0.85c. If one reactor is damaged a speed of
0.10c is capable with weapons up or 0.30c is possible with weapons down.
Weapons
The Wyvern is equipped with 4 class XIV phaser banks with a maximum power of 8.45 MW. The Wyvern also is
equipped with 2 torpedo tubes and 30 type C Quantum Torpedoes. The Torpedoes are preset to detonate with
a small blast radius thus creating less damage to the Wyvern itself, if fired at close range. The Wyvern's Torpedo
tubes are ready to re-load in 5 seconds.
Shields
The Wyvern is equipped with an upgraded type 6 deflector grid, which can absorb greater damage than types one
through five. It can also be programmed to reflect the phaser fire back from an enemy ship. These deflectors utilize
metaphasic shielding techniques, so the ship can hide in the sun's photosphere for up to 64 hours. These shields
also modulate frequencies after every attack, making it very difficult to penetrate with scanners.
Computer
The Wyvern uses a type J-4343-Posi-Quad-scan system, with positronic neurogel relay system. The system works at
billions of GigaquadHz per nanosecond. The system uses reduancy circuits in order to re-calculate responses
8 billion times per second in order to give adequate responses. Its self-diagnostic mode seeks out problems and
reports them to the Wyvern's main piloting helm.
Hull
The Hull of the Wyvern is plated with Diamond-Titanium Fusion, first used on the U.S.S. Phantom. This allows the
ship to take up to a full-on quantum torpedo hit before acquiring a hull breach.
Scanners
The Wyvern is equipped with 3 sets of scanners. The first, long-range scanners are equipped with enhanced
redundancy circuits, making false images projected by other ships useless. The second are short-range scanners.
These scanners can penetrate all known shielding. The third are cloak scanners. These scanners use ionized
particles to help detect any cloaked ships at close range.
