[SIZE=5][b]Amanatan Orbital Fleet[/SIZE][/b] While 2316 saw the founding of the ΛAGA and what many perceived as the beginning of realization for the Aleida doctrine, the somewhat messy conflict with Fusang also revealed the numerous limitations of Amanata's indirect naval strategy and the need for more hard options in the intermediate future. At the start of 2317, the former Dominion of Amanata Cosmonavy was cleaved into two commands – the Superluminal Fleet, which most existing ships were drawn into; and the Orbital Fleet, a new naval service commissioned as a wartime heavy combat and peacetime deterrence division. Presently, the service is mostly an office-based one, running large training and workup programs in preparation for its expected influx of ships in several years' time. However, the Orbital Fleet is also commissioned to provide honor escort for the Mikasa now and again, giving it a certain level of prestige compared to the "working ships" of the main navy.
[SIZE=4][b]Design[/SIZE][/b] Many of the ships in the Orbital Fleet are foreign built to Amanatan specifications though in some cases, they are second hand.

These ships are now under Amanatan commission where they are classed as orbital frigates. They are considerably different from modern Amanatan ships, packing honeycombed launch cells and laser cannons with which they provide a screen against aerospace or missile attack. In 2317, they became the first ships in the newly formed Amanatan Orbital Fleet. --AOFS [i]Rokkenjima[/i] --AOFS [i]Hinamizawa[/i]

Domestically they are quite a popular acquisition given their great size compared to all previous ships but they are regarded with some misgiving by naval staff. --AOFS [i]Artoria Pendragon[/i] (Jan 2320) --AOFS [i]Oda Nobuna[/i] (June 2320)

The Type 995 is a mature and flexible medium freighter hull that has been available in small numbers from Dominion Star Yards on the international civilian market for years. Most variants, including the latest model F, are not particularly popular since they're more expensive than competing handy sized freighters, except perhaps among types who find their inherent stealthiness useful in their line of work. The militarized configurations used by Amanatan armed services however, are right beasts for their size, being decently enough armed to serve as a light warship and resilient enough to survive on the battlefield provided they don't get focused. They are a common sight in Cosmonavy operating areas, being used as their primary supply vessel in which capacity they typically mount enough disposable missile pods to give even a proper warship pause in numbers.
[b]Type 995F/HA assault transport[/b] (Corvette) [b]modules[/b] (+1) Cosmic Infantry force (+1) ARC drive [b]weapons (ballistic/energy/missile)[/b]: (75/0/25) Type 995's are also operated by the Cosmic Armoured Infantry as their primary interstellar assault ship and are fitted with precision guided munitions and linear cannons for direct support in this role. The ship deploys drop shuttles from its assault deck but it can (and does) easily manage any gravity well its troops can handle in order to involve itself directly in the battle. Its dorsal weapons are well positioned for supporting fire when the ship is on a surface.
[b]Type 995F/Z picket ship[/b] (Corvette) [b]modules[/b] (+1) Advanced scanners (+1) ARC drive [b]weapons (ballistic/energy/missile)[/b]: (0/0/100) Another variant of the 995 stuffs a generator and a scanning array into the cargo hold for the ship to act as a picket ship or scout. These are deployed in association with other ships now and again to provide extended search and surveillance support. Such ships are typically outfitted with missile armament similar to the cargo configuration.
