The Unmanned Fleet Command Ship Gladiator, also called simply the Gladiator is an unmanned command ship of the Earth Federation Air Force.
Technical specifications and Armaments[]
The Gladiator is a space warship meant to command the Air Force Unmanned Defense Fleet. Unlike the Ajax interceptors making up the fleet it is operated by a crew, however all maneuvering functions are concentrated on the bridge, making it possible to operate with an extremely small number of people. Since the Air Force envisioned the use of hit-and-run tactics like fighter jets for the Gladiator and its accompanying interceptor ships, it was developed and built as a ship with high maneuverability that surpasses the vessels employed bythe Cosmo Navy.[1]
History[]
In 2207, Gladiator was the flagship of the Limited Autonomous Air Defense System, meant to control the feet's forty-nine Unmanned Fleet Interceptor Ajaxes.[1] When the Ground Reverse arrived in Earth’s solar system, the Gladiator and the automated fleet engaged it, but their attacks proved useless. The space fortress retaliated by sending out a jamming signal pulse that disabled the entire force, including the Gladiator. Three Pleiades-class Assault Battleships then warped out and began wiping out the automated fleet, save for the Gladiator, whose crew had managed to successfully restore its systems and retreated, narrowly avoiding enemy fire.[2]
