The '''Bengal with pew pew''' is a heavy cruiser (CA){{efn|Based on the holotable projection designation of [[StarCitizen:UEES Corvus]].}}  design apparently derived from the Bengal fleet carrier's design and operated by the [[StarCitizen:United Empire of Earth Navy]].<ref name="citcon2024">[https://youtu.be/1H-0x4xk2Xk Squadron 42 CitizenCon 2954 Live Gameplay Reveal] on YouTube</ref>

==Features==
{{List item|Main Battery|The ship's main battery consists of a trio of triple gun turrets mounting ballistic cannons, one aft and two forward of the amidships bridge tower with the forward turrets in superfiring configuration.
}}{{List item|Secondary Armaments|The main battery is supplemented by four secondary twin gun turrets, with two flanking each side of the ship's command bridge. Alongside these secondary batteries are several missile launchers for both defensive intercept and offensive bombardment roles.
