The CCS Franco Martell was a Feng Huang-class cruiser constructed by and in service with the Capellan Confederation.

History[edit]

The Franco Martell launched in 3062.

The ship was deployed to Halloran V in 3077. They found only a single squadron of Leopard Pocket WarShips and a handful of fighters protecting the jump point, which they easily bruised aside. The Franco Martell deployed in low orbit to allow easiness of landing to the DropShips of the Fifth McCarron's Armored Cavalry, Lockhardt's Ironsides and Laurel's Legion.

At that moment the WoB used their hidden SDS system, consisting of two Drake SDS Control Stations, twenty four Cockatrice Monitors and twelve squadrons of Hive-class fighters. The Franco Martell died defending the ground forces.[1][2][3]
