CSN Griffin

Griffin is a Confederation starfighter carrier.

 

Background

The largest of the CSN's starfighter carriers, Griffin is currently acting as the flagship for the Navy in Dragon's absence. It is generally commanded by Elliott Parks.

Though a Cobra class carrier like Ifrit and Leviathan, improvements to many aspects of the vessel, including crew and starfighter compliment, have seen it classified as a Cobra-B, paving the way towards carrier-battleship hybrid vessels.

 

The Honour of the Knights [Toggle Spoilers]

Griffin was one of the three CSN carriers that took part in Operation Menelaus. It was severely damaged during the mission when an Imperial starfighter crash landed on its flight deck. It then suffered a mis-jump upon attempting to return to Spirit and was eventually engaged in a battle with CSN Ifrit.

As of June 2617, the carrier was taken out of service and consigned to several months in dry-dock for repairs.
