The '''AS ''Alliance'''' is the first operational vessel of the '''Star Carrier''' class, representing a generational shift in Alliance naval doctrine. Designed for sustained presence, rapid response, and disciplined force projection, the ship serves as both a mobile carrier platform and a stabilizing infrastructure asset within Alliance space.

Unlike experimental predecessors such as the ''Ralos'', the AS ''Alliance'' was conceived from the outset as a **repeatable class design**, with multiple future carriers planned.

---

== Registry ==
* '''AM-12907'''
** '''A''' — Alliance vessel
** '''M''' — Constructed at Markasisa Orbital Shipyard
** '''12907''' — Sequential registry number assigned by Alliance Naval Logistics

Fighter craft assigned to the carrier use the format:
* '''AM-12907-#'''

---

== Design Philosophy ==
The AS ''Alliance'' was designed in response to emerging threats including:
* Horoki incursions
* Reactivation of ancient phase-based devices
* Expansion of Alliance membership into frontier space

The carrier emphasizes:
* Arrival *before* escalation
* Disciplined restraint over intimidation
* Infrastructure-first defense doctrine

Its purpose is not conquest, but **presence**.

---

== Propulsion ==
The AS ''Alliance'' is equipped with a **Meras-type Phase Drive**, first operational in Annuli 3420.

* Maximum rated velocity: **Z8**
* Operational doctrine restricts Z8 travel to:
** Verified SNS corridors
** Controlled transit windows
** Post-transit stabilization periods

Although Meras-type Phase Drives entered service in Annuli 3420, the AS ''Alliance'' represents the first successful large-scale application of the technology following more than a decade of doctrinal and infrastructural development.

The ship does not reposition frequently after high-Z transits in order to minimize **Phase Drift** accumulation.

---

== Phase Drift Policy ==
Following high-frequency phase travel, residual **Phase Drift** may occur in surrounding space.

To preserve navigational stability:
* The carrier holds position after major transits
* Phase-capable escorts are limited
* Non-phase craft conduct local operations

This policy was demonstrated publicly during the carrier’s first deployment at Altair.

---

== Fighter Wing ==
The AS ''Alliance'' carries:
* '''14 Phase Shuttles'''
* '''75 Aheiki-class fighters'''

=== Aheiki Fighters ===
Aheiki fighters are short-range, high-acceleration strike craft.

Characteristics:
* No Phase Drive
* Conventional propulsion only
* Operate within carrier-defined engagement volumes
* Optimized for rapid launch, interception, and recall

The fighters are armed with **Mark III Regenerative Plasma Weapons** and are intentionally minimal in pilot accommodations.

Fighter operations do not contribute to Phase Drift.

---

== Hangar Configuration ==
The carrier contains multiple hangar decks, including:
* Internal launch bays with tube-assisted deployment
* A dorsal surface hangar deck

The surface hangar deck operates under:
* Force field containment
* External gravity plating (Relekorium-G based)

This configuration allows rapid fighter scramble similar in concept to ancient planetary carrier operations.

---

== Command and Systems ==
* '''Commanding Officer:''' Rear Admiral Robert Fen
* '''Shipboard AI:''' Draven Yat

Draven Yat functions as:
* Systems auditor
* Procedural compliance monitor
* Real-time doctrine enforcement AI

Draven does not exercise independent command authority.

---

== Crew Composition ==
The AS ''Alliance'' operates as a fully multi-species vessel.

Known species represented include:
* Prosian
* Human
* Tonan
* Seeryite
* Arzaneet
* Telranian
* Other Alliance member species

Crew selection emphasizes:
* Technical qualification
* Cultural compatibility
* Operational discipline

---

== Operational History ==

=== First Public Deployment ===
* Route: Prose → Altair → Prose
* Duration: 11 hours each way
* Velocity: Z8
* Annuli: 3431

At Altair Station, the carrier conducted:
* A public non-combat demonstration
* Full fighter deployment and recall
* SNS-integrated containment exercise

No live weapons were fired.

---

== Cultural Impact ==
The AS ''Alliance'' has been cited as:
* A turning point in Alliance defensive confidence
* A visible demonstration of preparedness without aggression
* The first vessel to normalize Z8 travel as infrastructure rather than experiment

Alliance Children’s Organization members present during the first deployment were issued commemorative pins marking the event.

---

== Legacy ==
The AS ''Alliance'' established:
* Star Carrier doctrine
* Z8 operational standards
* Phase Drift mitigation protocols
* Repeatable carrier construction architecture

Future Star Carriers are expected to follow its design lineage.
