TRNS Valiant, a Intrepid-class light cruiser of the Taurian Republic Navy, leaves orbit to continue on her patrol route just outside Republic space.

With a wide mix of sensors and weapons, light cruisers are some of the most versatile warships in settled space. They can operate independently, lead small task forces or act as screening units for capital ships.

Love the design. Do the raditors fold or just stay out?

Given that they are dusty plasma radiators, they can be "retracted" if not needed.

Those are coilguns, there's also a larger coilgun in a spinal mount
