Interdictor Cruiser

About the same size as the Phoenix, but shaped more like the wedge-like Omen, the Interdictor was developed in response to Kuvalla's use of R-X-Z devices to jam dimensional strands during the Moogle Wars™. The Interdictor's main function is to override R-X-Z devices with the use of a special frequency sent out on the ship's transponders. The frequency jams R-X-Z devices, thus allowing access to dimensions that would otherwise be closed due to R-X-Z masking. As an added bonus, Interdictors also are able to intercept R-X-Z navigation paths. Ships travelling using R-X-Z drives that pass by an Interdictor will be dropped out of the X-Zone and return to the prime plane. The Interdictor was, at the time of its introduction, probably the weakest of Guardia's capital ships in terms of weaponry, but it carries a 100 fighter complement and is almost never without at least 2 Blackbirds. Only a few Interdictors remain in active service in the Fleet, and all are attached to the Home Fleet in Gatespace. No additional Interdictors are being produced now, as their need dried up when the R-X-Z drive went out of commission due to its inherent deadly flaws.
