Human Jackson class cruiser

The Jackson was designed at the Mars vessel research and development facility. The first Jackson class vessel was finished being built on March 7 2006, three years after the Bladeship incident. The Human confederation hopes that the Jackson will fill a much needed role in Earths fleet, a long range combat ship capable of deploying a sizable number of troops. It is equiped with Anati absorbtion shields, which absorb the impact and energy of weapons or other threats much better then the magnetic shields previously used by the Earth fleet.
