The Ausmerzer is the pride of the New Corporate Republic's Luftschiffeflotte. A vital portion of its military projection power, it serves as a deadly warship and a flying aircraft carrier, bringing the terrifying military might of the NCR wherever its shadow falls.
Construction
Initial conceptionalization and construction on the first of the Ausmerzer (literally: Eradicator) line of ships began in the climactic moments of the Morsehead Conflagration. It had become clear to Chisel Enterprises administration during the course of the war that they dearly lacked capital ships, and so a major effort was made to jump-start construction on larger craft in order to match the Vindictus Ove's mighty capital ships. This led Chisel Dynamics designers to propose a ship like no other - nearly twice as large as the Vindictus Ove's largest class of ship, the Octavia-Class. This new class of ship, innocently named "Project Night Sky", was kept shrouded in complete secrecy during its construction. However, the war ended before it could be finished, and thusly, the first ship of the class constructed, the Ausmerzer V-1 (V standing for Vengeance) never saw action in the Morsehead Conflagration.
Use in the Invasion of Novenæ
The Ausmerzer V-1 would see combat soon after, though, as the Novenæ Ibrahimic government slowly threw itself into severe debt with Chisel Enterprises, a debt it later refused to pay. Chisel Enterprises recognized the financial riskiness of selling weaponry to a despotic government, and thusly, it
