The SFCV
Pillar of Twilight (BB2-07) is one of the two newest
Praetorian-class battleships under construction. It is intended as a testbed for new weapons technology.
History
The SFCV Pillar of Twilight (BB2-07) was ordered in 2502 CE, for construction in orbit over Arxune, in the Laeth System. It is intended to be a testbed for next-generation energy weapons, to explore the possibility of reducing the fleet's dependence on projectile weaponry, allowing for easier supply lines.
