| + | Hawking class battleship is a design of a big science ship for service in United Systems Fleet since 2169. It's designed as a very modern ship equipped with advanced on-board laboratories as well as very effective defence systems. It's engines make the ship one of the fastest ships in fleet. | ||

In 2166 the works started. In 2169 the prototype was ready. It's relation to Praeon class is obvious. A few months ago the USRS Hawking came into service. It's great abilities were tested on a scientific mission in Epsilon Eridani system. The defence systems were never used yet, but power of eight automatic medium cannons is expected to be very impressive. |
| − | + | :However, the recently finished battleship is amazing achievement in shipbuilding. The only ship of it's class, the ''USWS Praeon'', came into service in 2167 and since then plays important role in Solar system's defence against enemy operations. The most notable action was succesful attack on a lone Deneroth battleship on reconaissance mission deep in the Proxima Centauri sector in 2168. | |
