Depiction

The most recent warship designed by the Centauri Republic, the Vorchan is extremely fast and maneuverable, although it's not very well armed and armoured for its class.^[1] The Vorchan is capable of creating its own hyperspace jump points,^[1] and it is capable of flying in a planetary atmosphere.^[4] Its primary weapons are two twin plasma accelerators, which are capable of destroying larger warships of other races (such as the Narn G'Quan-Class cruiser) in just a few hits.^[3] Even the extremely advanced White Star vessels are vulnerable to the Vorchan's plasma cannon fire.^[2]
