CSN Leviathan

Leviathan is a Confederation starfighter carrier.

 

Background

Like Ifrit, Leviathan is smaller than Griffin, but just as effective and reliable a carrier. It is one of the three most well recognised carriers of the CSN. Though it was intended to make its maiden voyage in the same week as CSN Ifrit, manufacturing problems meant that it did not do so until some 4 months later.

Captaincy varies, but it is generally commanded by Aiden Meyers when assigned to significant operations.

 

The Honour of the Knights [Toggle Spoilers]

Along with Griffin and Ifrit, Leviathan participated in Operation Menelaus, commanded by Aiden Meyers. After the operation, the carrier returned to Spirit, before it became part of the search and rescue team, looking for Griffin. It arrived in the Phylent system only 30 minutes after the conclusion of the battle between Griffin, Ifrit and Dragon, and then lead the surviving CSN carriers home.

 

The Third Side [Toggle Spoilers]

Leviathan was the closest CSN vessel to the Coyote system when Ifrit was shot down and Mythos was invaded. Acting captain Aiden Meyers took the carrier into the system to ascertain the size and strength of the Pandoran forces surrounding the planet, before he was forced to retreat as soon as he discovered he was outnumbered.

The ship joined the battle in Coyote, along with a number of UNF vessels, including Talos. Leviathan sustained moderate damage during the battle, but escaped with the allied forced when the Tachyon Star Bombs exploded on Grendel's Mother.
