![]() Class: Magellan Ships of the line: Ananke, Nereid, Phoebe, Titan, Luzar, Hyperion, Hood, Kilimanjaro Unit type: battleship Manufacturer: Earth Federation Forces Operator: Earth Federation Forces First deployment: October UC 0070 Dimensions: overall length 327 meters; overall width 102 meters; overall height 96 meters Equipment and design features: re-entry capsule; sensors, range unknown Fixed armaments: 7 x 2-barrel mega particle cannon; 14 x 2-barrel machine gun; 4 x missile launcher Technical and Historical Notes The main battleship of the Earth Federation Space Force, the Magellan class were heavily armed and armored, typically reserved for fleet commanders and other high-ranking officers. Like the Salamis class, the Magellan was a product of the Earth Federation's '70's Armament Reinforcement Plan'. The Magellan, like the Salamis class, lacked the ability to carry any mobile suits, although like the rest of the EF fleet, were pressed into use as MS transports late in the One Year War, carrying RGM-79 GM and RB-79 Ball units into combat lashed to the outer hull. The Magellan was the most heavily armed of the One Year War era EFSF fleet, mounting seven twin mega particle cannon turrets, with numerous machine gun turrets and missile launchers. Even with this heavy armament, it was still outmatched by the Principality of Zeon's Gwazine class battleships and Zanzibar class cruisers, with their integral mobile suit complements. Magellan class ships carried a large re-entry capable shuttle on the ventral hull, similar to the Salamis class light cruisers. |
