The GTVA Colossus
Spanning 6 KM long from Bow to Stern, it took 25 Years to complete. Width is unknown, but it is massive.

History

The first combat deployment of the Colossus was against the Neo-Terran Front. It can be truthfully said that it was the Colossus that was the ultimate factor in the NTF's collapse. NTF forces proved to be no match for the Colossus and her battle group, and the rebels made every effort to avoid direct combat with the warship. With his fleet shattered, and the remnants being actively pursued and destroyed by the Colossus, Admiral Aken Bosch gave the order to flee GTVA space to the relative safety of the nebula beyond Gamma Draconis.

With the NTF defeated, the Colossus was finally to fulfill the role her designers had envisioned for her: the defeat of a second Shivan incursion. However, as it turned out, the challenge was not to be SD Lucifer-class superdestroyers, but rather the even more massive SJ Sathanas-class juggernaut. Twenty years of constant struggle finally culminated with the Colossus's destruction of the Sathanas, all at the cost of moderate damage to the Colossus.

All would have been well was it not for the Shivans possessing multiple juggernauts. In the closing stages of the Battle of Capella, the Colossus was deployed to interdict Shivan traffic at the Gamma Draconis jump node in Capella to divert enemy forces and attention away from the Bastion, which was en route to collapse the jump corridor to Epsilon Pegasi. The ploy succeeded, as the Shivans first deployed a SD Ravana, then a SJ Sathanas to engage the Colossus. In her weakened state, it was obvious that the Colossus would not survive an engagement with another Sathanas-class juggernaut, and Allied Command ordered the Colossus to withdraw.

However, with the success of the Bastion's critical mission in doubt, the Colossus disobeyed the direct order from Allied Command, and refused to disengage. Subsequently, the Colossus was destroyed with the loss of all hands. The thirty-thousand officers and crew of the Colossus willingly sacrificed themselves to ensure the continued survival of the billions of individuals making up the Terran and Vasudan species, and ultimately, the Galactic Terran-Vasudan Alliance.



Specifications

Sub-Light engines: 4 Large Ion Drive Engines, capable of accelerating the ship at a rate of 25 Meters/Second.
FTL Drive: Black-Hole Drive. This expands an infinitely small black hole to a size where it barely engulfs the ship and forces it through it's wormhole, then shrinks it again. Gravity field cancelled out by large Gravity Field Manipulator.
Armor: Repellon-Grade NeoSteel Armor.
Shield: 3 Terra class Shield Generators mounted on board.
Carrier: Can hold 60 Fighter and Bomber wings on board, 120 in all.
Weapons: 45 Laser Turrets, 15 Flak Turrets, 12 Missile Batteries, and 12 Beam Cannons

That is one of the ugliest ships I've ever seen.

What mod do you have that you can put a pin on your star fighters?

Its one of the minimap mods, Seems like ray's (or whatever). It's not a pin ON the fighters themselves, just a map mark that happened to be on the fighter when the screenshot was taken.

Sun crusher is ugly as... I don't know, uglyness.

Not only is it ugly, it also maneuvers like a city block and it has a massive blind spot (above and behind) where it literally has no weaponry at all.

The Sun Crusher is way too big. It's only about 13 blocks tall in 'real life'.

Why would you post a 'ship' from Sonic the Hedgehog? IMO, it's horrendously over designed and ugly as sin. I know it's your personal taste, but...it's like the Bronies claiming My Little Pony as a sci-fi franchise...

Oh, Sonic is not sci-fi...
Well, what´s NOT sci-fi about it?
It has spaceships, lasers, battle robots, battle walkers,...
The existance of mobians is explained by Archie Comics with mutation of animals due to the use of bio-weapons called "gene-bombs" by an alien race like the Xorda.
And, finally: All the magic in sonic-stuff (well, at least in the (Archie) comics and SonicX, I hate the Storybook Series for that) is explainable by "Chaos Energy", which is most likely a mobia word for the Force.

If it has spaceships, it's science fiction. I think the Sonic ship is a little weird, but it's a legitimate contribution.

I know.
some People may not know this, but Sonic actually has a lot of science fiction in it, mainly in games from the dreamcast-era.

Read my post. Not once did I say that Sonic isn't a sci-fi series, nor did I insinuate it. I only said that the ship looks ridiculous. As for the second part, it was in reference to the sci-fi franchises thread in the off-topic section. Read what you quote before you try to counter it.

The sun crusher is 13 m tall?

OP, much?

I think I was wrong. It's 13 meters long. I read it wrong.

That would pretty small.

No, 13 meters tall. Holy cow. That is OP.

It's 13.5 meters long, according to Wookieepedia. It's still small, but it's a lot bigger than if it were 13.5 meters tall.
