MCRN Callisto Shipyards
The Martian Congressional Republic Navy's Callisto Shipyards areThe Martian Congressional Republic main shipyards and the largest such facility in the Outer Planets. Most of the MCRN’s fleet has been built there, including the 700-meter long hulls of its primary engine of war, the Donnager-class dreadnought. The MCRN Callisto Lunar Shipyards are far below Port Hampton in the crater itself, a sprawling complex of warehouses and supply depots, bunkers and barracks, perimeter fences and workshops. It shares anti-asteroid rail gun defenses with its civilian twin. The MCRN Callisto Orbital Shipyards were built at the same time as the Lunar Shipyards and have expanded somewhat similarly over the years. Complete assembly of the largest ships occurs in high orbit above the moon. Additionally, it services the ships of the Jupiter Fleet cruising between Ceres and Ganymede. There are rumors of classified weapons testing on that route, especially out of the Callisto shipyards, but little else is known. Part of the Orbital Shipyards has been leased to the Earth-based civilian companies of the UN Callisto Shipyards
The immense amount of resources the Martian Republic pours into its scientific and military projects have given them the edge in space. Martian-built ships are unparalleled in the system, boasting superior systems across the board including sensors, armor, and stealth technology. Only the capital ships of the UN Navy can come close in any category that matters. Mars’ technology is superior, its weapons are more deadly, and its soldiers are better trained—and Martians never let anyone else forget it.
The MCRN’s dreadnoughts and battleships are large enough to act as mobile bases, carrying everything from squads of marines and their Goliath Power Armor to shuttles and Corvette-class escort ships. Mars has developed advanced stealth technology, though it is primarily deployed on Huge-size ships and smaller
The MCRN’s design is similar to the UN’s in the use of soft edges, curves, and spongy materials to minimize damage if someone is caught out of place by impact or sudden maneuvers. However, biometric interfaces that control things like food distribution and sick bays with ultra high-tech couches that relay patient vitals directly to Olympus Mons are not found on UN Navy ships. Nor are amenities such as their excellent coffee makers.
