Cydonia Naval Academy Vessel Classification System (A1-0)

The Cydonia Naval Academy Vessel Classification System, colloquially called the 'Voidsea System' is a system used to classify military vessels in the Voidsea. Originally created for use in the Compact Navy, it has made widespread use among most groups in the Voidsea. The Cydonia Naval Academy Vessel Classification System notably does not classify spacecraft as they are smaller than 50 meters.

Ship Classifications

Light Warships

Littoral Patrol Ship (LPS)

Littoral Patrol Ships are fast agile ships designed for anti-piracy duties. Littoral Patrol Ships descend from Cutters, a sailing ship with a singular mast.

Cutters are generally between 50-150 meters long, 25-50 meters wide, and 15-30 meters tall.

Corvette (FFL)

Corvettes are the smallest 'proper' warships. They carry any warship grade weapons system and have dust-containment faster-than-light. Corvettes subdivide into Patrol Corvettes (FFP), Point Defense Corvettes (FFD), and Light Corvettes (FFL).

Alternate System

The Alternate System, also known as the rate system, is a classification system basing ships off gunnery systems. Ships are also classified based on whether their gunnery systems are remotely operated or manually operated (Remote-Rigged vs Manual-Rigged)
