The Hakaga-class Heavy Carrier was a Kilrathi carrier designed to defeat the Terran Confederation in one brutal assault against Earth. A fleet of 12 carriers was under construction in the last years of the war in absolute secrecy though only 5 would be finished for the Earth offensive in 2668.

The carrier was larger and more heavily shielded than the contemporary Bhantkara-class carrier and had six launch-bays, three pointing aft and three forward, instead of just one. It could transfer spacecraft between the various bays using internal access corridors should one or more of them be hit by enemy fire. It was designed to withstand heavy Confederation ordinance of the time including the Mark IV & V antimatter torpedoes.
