Legion Defensive - Augmented Plating
| typeID | 45587 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Legion Defensive - Augmented Plating Blueprint |
| Description | Although this subsystem uses the same armor nano-assemblers as standard empire technology, various optimizations have been made. Taking full advantage of recently discovered Sleeper designs, the use of fullerene-based technology has allowed for the combination of far more compact and resilient armor components. |
Legion Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
| typeID | 45586 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Legion Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration Blueprint |
| Description | From the moment Strategic Cruisers became a reality, there were whispers amongst the scientific community about the potential for advances in cloaking technology. They remained that alone for the longest time, with few involved in the reverse-engineering process willing to share any news of their discoveries. Everyone knew that, should the technology ever become a reality, the capabilities of the new Strategic Cruisers would change overnight. The Amarrians are suspected to have developed cloaking technology for the Legion around the same time as the first capsuleer designs began to surface. For almost a full week, Minmatar rebel camps deep inside Heimatar and Metropolis were subjected to ruthless guerilla attacks, almost unprecedented in their ferocity and viciousness. Although initially confused by such a marked changed in their opponent's warfare philosophy, the Matari knew that each target had been a high profile objective for the Imperial Navy, and noted with deep suspicion how all of the squads had been spearheaded by Legions that could hit and fade with alarming ease. Few doubted who was behind the bloodshed. The Amarrians remained silent for the most part, the only official statement; that God's will had manifested itself in the heart of evil. |
Legion Defensive - Nanobot Injector
| typeID | 45588 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Legion Defensive - Nanobot Injector Blueprint |
| Description | The advanced Sleeper-based technology in this subsystem is focused on increasing the effectiveness of a vessel's armor nanobots. When integrated into the hull of a Legion, it offers a substantial increase in the armor output of any local repair modules fitted. Although the subsystem offers the same end result as other built-in armor repair augmentations, the technology driving it operates in a vastly different way, allowing for easy removal from its host vessel. |
Loki Defensive - Adaptive Defense Node
| typeID | 45597 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Loki Defensive - Adaptive Defense Node Blueprint |
| Description | After years of experience working with recovered Sleeper and Talocan technology from Anoikis, Sebiestor engineers have achieved a new breakthrough long though impossible: they have successfully developed fullerene nanomachines capable of repairing either shield and armor equally effectively. These tiny nanobots can actively switch between shield and armor repair on the fly allowing the Loki to achieve incredible repair systems without refitting facilities. |
Loki Defensive - Augmented Durability
| typeID | 45596 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Loki Defensive - Augmented Durability Blueprint |
| Description | Capitalizing on the exceptional defensive capabilities of fullerene-based components, this subsystem allows a Loki pilot to augment their armor and shield defenses, dramatically enhancing its survivability in combat. Tiny molecular-level conduits play a crucial role in orchestrating the flow of nano-assemblers through and around the Loki, guarding the flow of vital repairs against disruptive impact. |
Loki Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
| typeID | 45595 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Loki Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration Blueprint |
| Description | From the moment Strategic Cruisers became a reality, there were whispers amongst the scientific community about the potential for advances in cloaking technology. They remained that alone for the longest time, with few involved in the reverse engineering process willing to share any news of their discoveries. Everyone knew that, should the technology ever become a reality, the capabilities of the new Strategic Cruisers would change overnight. The Loki's Covert Reconfiguration designs arose out of a collective will to respond to what was thought to be Amarrian aggression deep inside their home regions. Unlike many scientific and technological breakthroughs, it was not the Sebiestor tribe alone who ushered in the paradigm shift to covert-capable Strategic Cruisers. It was only through consultation and collaboration with many other tribes and sub-factions that something substantial began to take shape. The Krusual and Thukker are said to have played the most important roles, however, in realizing the final design; the Thukker by providing the cloaking technology, and the Krusual by convincing them to do so. How they achieved this, or what they may have promised remains a secret; the two tribes are notorious for having many, and keeping them all. |

Proteus Defensive - Augmented Plating
| typeID | 45593 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Proteus Defensive - Augmented Plating Blueprint |
| Description | Although this subsystem uses the same armor nano-assemblers as standard empire technology, various optimizations have been made. Taking full advantage of recently discovered Sleeper designs, the use of fullerene-based technology has allowed for the combination of far more compact and resilient armor components. |
Proteus Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
| typeID | 45592 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Proteus Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration Blueprint |
| Description | From the moment Strategic Cruisers became a reality, there were whispers amongst the scientific community about the potential for advances in cloaking technology. They remained that alone for the longest time, with few involved in the reverse engineering process willing to share any news of their discoveries. Everyone knew that, should the technology ever become a reality, the capabilities of the new Strategic Cruisers would change overnight. To many Gallente and Caldari, the development of the Proteus covert reconfiguration signaled a repeat of the technological arms race that arose from the ashes of Crielere. Once again seeking a balance of power, and entirely convinced that the Caldari were attempting to reverse-engineer their own cloak-capable Strategic Cruisers, the Federation diverted immense resources to their research. Private firms and the largest of conglomerates all played a role in development, offering up prototype designs and speculative theories that collectively resulted in some of the first Covert-Capable Proteus produced. It is not known who, or what organization led the project. Nor is known when, or where, the first Covert Reconfigurations were deployed. If it had not been for capsuleers developing the same designs, most people would have remained oblivious to their existence, just the way the Federation would have preferred. |

| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Proteus Defensive - Nanobot Injector Blueprint |

Tengu Defensive - Amplification Node
| typeID | 45591 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Tengu Defensive - Amplification Node Blueprint |
| Description | When confronted with the challenge of adapting Sleeper designs to produce shield boost amplification systems, Caldari engineers turned to the defense systems used by certain Talocan structures that had also been found in a few ancient ruins. In some rare cases, the shielding systems on Talocan facilities were constructed using a harmony of Sleeper and Talocan designs. The first successful production of a shield boost amplification node drew heavily upon early study of this particular combination. |
Tengu Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
| typeID | 45589 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Tengu Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration Blueprint |
| Description | From the moment Strategic Cruisers became a reality, there were whispers amongst the scientific community about the potential for advances in cloaking technology. They remained that alone for the longest time, with few involved in the reverse engineering process willing to share any news of their discoveries. Everyone knew that, should the technology ever become a reality, the capabilities of the new Strategic Cruisers would change overnight. Emboldened by the development of other, more specialized subsystems, engineers and astrophysicists alike began to investigate modifications to a Strategic Cruiser that could aid their fellow scientists and explorers. The first reverse-engineering projects were predominantly focused on ways to improve a vessel's astrometric capabilities. The two-pronged solution of boosting both the strength of the launchers and the probes they deployed proved to be the most popular design in the end. It was not long after the first designs were sold that others took notice and began to reverse-engineer their own. Soon enough, the subsystem was catapulted into mainstream Tech III subsystem manufacture, although perhaps for more than just that one reason. |
Tengu Defensive - Supplemental Screening
| typeID | 45590 |
| Mass | 1,400,000.00 kg |
| Volume | 40.00 m³ |
| Capacity | 300.00 m³ |
| Category | Defensive Subsystem |
| Produced By | Tengu Defensive - Supplemental Screening Blueprint |
| Description | Making full use of recent scientific advances afforded by the discovery of ancient technologies, Caldari starship designers have reverse engineered the equipment behind the Sleeper's metallofullerene armor plating. Through a complex substitution method, skilled engineers and physicists have been able to supplement a Tengu's shields, offering increased survivability for a pilot under heavy fire. |
