    DESCRIPTION AND NOTES
    The Ark Royal-class is a large carrier designed to operate in a fast strike role relying on it's escorts and fighter group for defence. Following the traditional design style, the Ark Royal has a large saucer based on the Sovereign-class but is wider due to a centreline insert. The engineering hull is fairly bulky and replaces the normal deflector dish with a large flight deck for launching multiple small craft simultaneously, whilst the stern of the hull has a standard looking recovery bay with another halfway along it's dorsal surface. The main navigational deflector has been moved to the nose of the saucer and a small auxiliary deflector is mounted in interconnecting hull that falls between the Sovereign and Galaxy classes in size, this section also carries the long and thin flight ops bridge so that the launch and recovery decks can be overlooked visually. The main impulse engines are mounted in the roots of the variable-geometry pylons that project slightly upwards from the belly of the engineering hull when at rest and carry the same design of warp nacelles as the Sovereign-class. Whilst the dorsal phaser array is carried in the standard position on the upper surface of the saucer, the placement of the launch bays has required that the ventral array is mounted on the engineering hull. The single torpedo launcher turret is mounted above the bridge at the peak of the saucer with the Captain's Yacht mounted on top. The fighter group provides the main weapons system for the vessel and normally consists of 32 Spitfire or Tempest-class fighters and 8 Tiger-class combat shuttles backed up by 2 Sentry-class sensor shuttles, 4 Danube-class Runabouts and 4 Type 18 Shuttlepods.

    DEVELOPER'S NOTES
    Not sure if I've followed Eric R.'s design rules correctly, but here you are. Although Eric's recovery decks are meant to work without tractor beams, I added a few just as an emergency backup.

    Very Nice Swampy, Just the sort of Ship Star Fleet, might be using after the Dominion War as the Core Element of a Rapid Response Task Force designed to cope with small to medium sized problems.
