The '''''Plunkett'''''-class Cruiser was a class of Confederation capital ship that was in service during the [['''Nephilim War''']].  These cruisers are designed for both offensive and defensive actions with his large array of turrets.
 
The ''Plunkett'' sports a heavy armament of three Triple Mount Heavy Particle Cannon turrets and one Triple Mount Heavy Plasma Cannon Turret for anti-capship operations.  In addition, this ship of the line is equipped with 21 Dual-Mount Point Defense Laser and Tachyon turrets for anti-fighter/bomber protection of both itself and the larger fleet.
 
For added operation capability, the cruiser can maintain a near full squadron of 15 fighters.  This added functionality enhances the Plunkett's role as both fleet defender and battleship.
