Notes: The cha'qI'tI'nga class light carrier is based on the qI'tI'nga class light cruiser's hull, increasing the dimensions of the standard qI'tI'nga by more than eighty two percent to accomodate troop detachments and fighters. Many of the spaces within the hull have been reconfigured for this new ship's primary task of moving troops and fighters into a war zone. Going back to the old ways of the D-7 class, which was designed to carry comparatively large numbers of troops, so does the cha'qI'tI'nga. The ship's hull has been reinforced with a more sturdy armor to withstand prolonged attacks by enemy fighters.
