Ge-C1-2a - Ookami-Class Light Cruiser

The Ge-C1-2a Light Cruiser is a variant of the Geshrinari Shipyards Urufu-Class Light Cruiser; it became available in YE 33. The version of this ship re-designed for disaster recovery operations is the RDRS Ge-C1-3a - Ookami-Class Light Cruiser.

The Ge-C1-2a variant of the Urufu-Class is designed by Geshrinari Shipyards. It called the Ookami-class, Ookami is another word for wolf in Yamataian The C1-2a had Star Army of Yamatai restricted technology removed. It is available for purchase by allied factions, government agencies, and civilian organizations. The Ookami-class comes with a basic weapons load and customers can customize the weapon load. The weapon systems it is equipped with are of Geshrinari Shipyards design.

In YE 33 during the refit of the TCS Urufu, Geshrinari Shipyards decided that the design could have a broader market value. Removing all the Star Army of Yamatai weapons and replacing a portion of them with their own non-aether weaponry, the Ge-C1-2a took shape. They also decided to offer it with a limited weapon configuration, and to allow the purchaser to customize some features.

The Ookami-Class hull is a tapered diamond shape. It is painted a neutral gray and features the Geshrinari Shipyards logo. It has a pair of wings along the forward hull to improve atmospheric performance. At the base of the wings the two torpedo tubes can be seen. Along the aft there are four Geshrinari Turbo Plasma Drive painted gray which propel the ship for STL travel. The non-retractable weapons are visible, and on the underside just before the engine pylon are the two clusters of shuttle bays.
