This is a Miranda Class Cruiser retrofitted in the Badlands. Deck 6 and 7 have been virtuallly gutted to make way for a much more expansive shuttle bay. This allows the Carrier to ferry a variety of smaller craft providing both protection within her hull for transport, as well as providing orbital cover while making landing operations.
MFS Shakaar and her two sister ships, MFS Independence, and MFS Micheal Eddington are capable of carrying twenty-one Tactical Fighters (two deployed squadrons and a command and control fighter), as well as two standard Type 6, and two advanced Type 11 Shuttlecraft. Shakaar has been equipped to carry the new experimental Runabouts for their individual shakedown cruises and trials. Shakaar will also serve as the command ship for special operations missions involving the Arrow Runabounts, ferrying them, and providing liaison with Empok Nor, Maquis HQ.
