Considered by many within the Terran Forces to be the equivelant
of a carrier, the Zentraedi in-fact view the Quiltra Queleual as a troop landing ship.
Over a hundred Regult Battlepods, the troops of the Zentraedi, are housed within its three
kilometre length. Additional craft include aerospace fighters, male power armour and various
support craft for any assault or invasion. The transport is modestly armed by Zentraedi
standards, with a pair of torpedo launchers fore, supplemented with four banks of laser
turrets. Its main defence are many anti-fighter missile turrets lining its hull. Heavily armoured,
it typically deploys its troops with dropships from orbit, however the Quiltra is also fully
capable of a planetary landing where it can deploy its forces directly. For this purpose its
prow is especially well armoured to survive the defensive fire. Many of these ships were
destroyed during the Zentraedi holocaust over Earth, but many hundreds more are still
smattered throughout former Tirolian space in rogue Zentraedi fleets.
