25000x Death Glider (four hundred and thirty squadrons) or
320x Qu'Tal'Kesh or Al’kesh (forty five squadrons)
Standard Complement: extremely variable, but a standard hangar equipment could be established in the IJN:
8600x Death Glider (four hundred and thirty squadrons) or
1600x Death Glider (eighty squadrons)
200x Te'Lac-Class frigate (ten squadrons)
Role:
multifunctional multi-purpose vessels, can be extremely adapted to the respective tactical and strategic situation, therefore only examples are possible here, for all the roles a Mah'arib-Class can fulfil:
flagship
mobile space-based fleet HQs
mobile garrison/outpost
carrier
tender/mobile dry dock
supply ship
hospital ship
high precision planetary bombardment
fighting enemy forces
protection of trade routes
performing special missions
support for allied units (space and planetary)
transport of planetary force vehicles
long-range artillery support for ground forces
etc.
Cargo Capacity: 132.925.986 m³ (maximum capacity when all hangars are used as cargo holds)
standard troop transport capacities: 12x Sha (Sha = Goa'uld: Army = 14000 warrior)
additional troop transport capacity: 36x Sha (maximum, although the Mah'arib-class could transport more troops)
Specificity:
largest, regular spaceship class of the Imperial Jaffa Navy
like the imperial Ha'taks, the Mah'arib-Class, unlike its republican counterparts, fully complies with modern standards for multifunctional multipurpose carrier ships
the Mah'arib-Class has four full hangar decks, unlike the Republican Sa'far-Class which has five individual hangars grouped around the core, each hangar having two decks
and also like the imperial Ha'tak, this class of ship is distinguished by the characteristic of the imperial design that the pyramid shape increases the size of the hangar decks from top to bottom (area size of the hangars from top to bottom:787.968 m², 1.012.683 m², 1.276.500 m²,1.576.875 m²)
The Mah'arib-Class has the largest hangar area of any multi-purpose hangar fleet carrier, with a total area of 4.654.026 m². (Nr.2 Union: 3.840.000 m², Nr. 3: Covenant 3.600.000 m², Nr. 4 Nation: 2.400.000 m²)
a very special feature of this class of ship are four additional, separate hangars in addition to the four main hangar decks in the ship's interior
this allows the Mah'arib-Class to completely convert the four main hangars for other purposes, (cargo transport, hospital ship, additional sensors, computers, etc., etc.), a capability basically possessed by all carrier ship classes.
but while all other fleet carrier classes must completely abandon their fighter squadrons in such a situation, the Mah'arib-Class still has a minimum contingent of 1600 death gliders, or eighty squadrons in these separate "outer hangars"
a very peculiar design element are the four main hangar doors that do not lead directly into a hangar
in fact, the lowest hangar deck is more than 30 decks above the main entrances
each entrance leads to a separate waiting hall, from where the waiting spaceships are distributed to the four hangar decks
this makes approaches and departures more complicated, especially in dangerous situations, than if the halls could be approached directly
however, this design has the advantage that traffic control can better control the arrivals and departures and the spacecraft can be better distributed among the hangars according to the respective hangar equipment.
and the Mah'arib-Class does not have metal hangar doors as is common with other carriers, including the Ha'taks, which can greatly increase the frequency of arrivals and departures in this area
the hangar doors are only closed by a simple deflector shield that protects against microasteroids
and that a minimum breathable atmosphere is maintained in the waiting halls in the event of an emergency.
the massively armoured waiting halls, on the other hand, not only serve to improve organisation, but also protect the ship's interior in the event of combat, should the massive shields of the Mah'arib-Class fail
and as with all ships of the Jaffa Empire, but also with the ships of the Jaffa Nation, the direct military operational aspect plays a greater role, while non-military operational aspects play a lesser role
to be precise, the Mah'arib-Class is specialised for use as a flagship, mobile fleet HQ and garrison/outpost, as far as one can speak of a modern fleet carrier being specialised
like the Sa'far class, this class of ship was originally developed to be able to command the growing number of ships in a fleet, especially on the battlefield
the multifunctionality of the fleet carriers is mainly used in the Mah'arib class to adapt these ships to the specific tactical, strategic and environmental* situation
*environmental situation means adaptation to the stellar environment: stellar nebulae, strongly radiating stars and other sources of disturbance that interfere with and limit sensors, communication, etc.
also, like the imperial Ha'tak, the Mah'arib-Class has multifunctional areas/ bays on the underside
these can be used for docking and transporting cargo and spaceships or used as dry docks (up to Ha'tak size)
the repair capacity of the Mah'arib-Class is much larger than that of the Sa'far-Class, but the Pendergast- and Vector-Classes have much higher capacities (as these classes were designed for this task, but their use as flagships is limited)
to facilitate work during repairs, the bays can be fitted with their own shields and equipped with a breathable atmosphere
the Mah'arib-Class thus combines, even more than the Sa'far-Class, roles that are filled in other factions by different ship and space station classes
for example, the IUSP uses the Asgard-class flagships, Henry Hayes-class spaceports, Henry Landry-class defence stations and the Richard P. Woolsey-class Border/Space Surveillance Stations for the same tasks as the Mah'arib-class
due to the enormous importance of these fleet carriers for the IJN, also in the case of defence, the Mah'arib-Class is the most heavily armed ship class of the fleet carrier type and can take on several battleships
in fact, only city ship type ships are more heavily armed, with the exception of the CLC's Bellunavis class battleships (nothing beats the firepower of an 80000 mm (!80 m!) caliber main gun).
