LNC Oculus

The Oculus-Class is a Schism-era rear-line shock attack cruiser. Built primarily to counter the threat of Empire Battlestations and serve as a companion ship to the LNBs Claymore. Block I Oculus cruisers have a complement of 2500 personnel onboard, while the Block II Oculus cruisers have a complement of 3200 personnel, an additional 700 personnel required to support the hangar bay.

The Oculus-Class boasts one of the strongest opening salvos, beating out the LNBs Claymore. Normally employed in the shock jump attack role, Oculus cruisers are rarely seen operating alone, usually with a LNFg Bellerophon team to support its shock jump capabilities and anti-strikecraft screen or in conjunction with a LNBs Claymore for hardened targets.

The Oculus-Class was designed and mass produced during the Schism. Since then, Oculus cruisers would see integration within all 3 major BattleFleets as a potent strategic deterrant. Recent upgrades from the post-1st Norsus era Naval Modernization Program, and post-2nd Norsus era Quantum Strategic Integration Refit have continued to increase the lethality and survivability of these ships.
