 With the advent of the Hammerhead gunship and the proliferation of [[mako|Mako]] and [[scoliodon|Scoliodon]] class fighters as the backbone components of the Azorean navy, the Commonwealth deemed there was need for a large vessel to operate as a carrier for numerous fighter craft, beyond what the Hammerhead could carry and field, but also a large vessel that could operate as a fleet flagship or command and control ship. The Angelwing class fleet carrier was born. Building upon existing un-utilized plans for a sub-light capable fighter carrier, the Azoreans scaled the design up and introduced the newly acquired hyperfold drive system into the vessel's design. At 1215 meters in length, the Angelwing stands as the largest military vessel ever constructed by the Azoreans as of YE 36.  With the advent of the Hammerhead gunship and the proliferation of [[mako|Mako]] and [[scoliodon|Scoliodon]] class fighters as the backbone components of the Azorean navy, the Commonwealth deemed there was need for a large vessel to operate as a carrier for numerous fighter craft, beyond what the Hammerhead could carry and field, but also a large vessel that could operate as a fleet flagship or command and control ship.

 The Angelwing fleet carrier is a large streamlined vessel. At the bow she features a smooth rounded off arrowhead shaped hull containing the habitation and command section of the ship. Behind this are three large spheres, one behind another, that hold the Angelwing's three massive launch bays, hangar decks and auxiliary craft support systems. At the ships stern, she tapers down to a cylindrical hull containing the Angelwings power plant, FTL and sub light engines as well as fuel stores, life support hardware, fabrication and manufacturing. Stretching back from the end of the cylinder are 8 tentacle-like extensions, containing energy shield generators utilized to focus and direct the thrust generated by the ships plasma engines, aiding in the Angelwings maneuvering. The Angelwing fleet carrier is a large streamlined vessel.

 The Angelwing is divided into three primary sections. At the front, the habitation section, contains command and control, living quarters, crew facilities, medical bay, life support systems. The center of the ship houses the hangar section, which is dominated by three one hundred meter diameter hangar spheres. These spheres house the ships flight decks, maintenance bays and support facilities for all of the Angelwing's support craft. Finally in back is the engineering section. This is a largely uninhabitable space containing the ships power systems, engines, machinery, fuel and fabrication shops. The Angelwing is divided into three primary sections.
