10x Es'audil Solutions GAS-2601 D Light Staff Cannon cal. 300 mm

10x Halevi Corp. SAPWCP-3H „Paragon“ Self-Propelled Heavy Rail Gun cal. 250 mm

6x Halevi Corp. CIRG-1414 „Bush Fire“ CIWS

6x BMT REMS-46 Ancient-Drone launcher (22 drones per launcher + 22 drones reserve per launcher = a total of 264 drones)

20x Vertical Launcher Systems (Equipped per cell with: a single Halevi Corp. IM-D-FW interplanetary missiles or with slide-in starter container with 9x BMT Ancient Drone Mk III each)
Complement (maximum): a half squadron (8) F-302 or UCV-304
Standard Complement: 4x F-302δ/D Aerospace Fighter

4x F-302ε/B Space Superiority Fighter/Interceptor

Cargo Capacity:
Role:

deep space patrol

deep space escort

deep space exploration (especially the DSC-308 sub-class, limited also the HC-308 standard version)

heavy reconnaissance

command ships for task forces
high precision planetary bombardment

fighting enemy forces

protection of trade routes

performing special missions

support for allied units (space and planetary)

support of battleship-carriers (only ships of IMC)

break through enemy lines

outmaneuver the enemy
strikes against main tactical and strategic targets

Cargo Capacity: -
Specificity:

second true Tau'ri space capital ship

originally developed to give the Tau'ri fleet, at that time consisting only of Teldy-Class corvettes, Vaselov-Class destroyers, Rya’C-Class carrier-destroyer and Daedalus-Class battle cruisers, a powerful weapon platform without having to build a full-fledged battleship

to keep costs down, as many elements of the Daedalus-Class as possible were adopted during development

thus, the Icarus-Class is technically more or less the Daedalus-Class, which is slightly extended (6%)

but, due to a completely changed deck structure, as well as the saving of 50% of the fighters, the Icarus-Class has space for a much stronger armor, better shields and more large turrets

since both ships have the same engine system, the Icarus-Class is significantly less maneuverable than the Daedalus-Class and has a lower sublight acceleration

so, in the 330 years in which this class of ships existed, several sub-classes of the Ikarus-Class were built, but unlike the Daedalus-Class, not a single freighter / transporter version (statement does not take into account one-of-a-kind pieces)

as already mentioned, the Daedalus-Class and Icarus-Class have been the backbone of the USOC in every respect for 330 years

because in contrast to all other known fleets, with the exception of the LDPD of the Lucian Alliance, the tactical and strategic measures of the USOC are based on the cruisers instead of the battleships

so it is not the cruiser's job to flank the Allied battleships, to escort them and to protect them in battle

rather, it is the task of the battleships to support the advance of the cruisers with long-range artillery fire

the aim is to bring the cruisers close to the enemy so that they can fire at the enemy directly with maximum accuracy and strength

meanwhile they are supported and protected by destroyers, frigates and corvettes

the two cruisers complement each other perfectly in their tasks

the Daedalus-Class uses its excellent maneuverability and acceleration for a ship of this size to outmaneuver the enemy and to push the enemy towards the Icarus-Class like a hunting dog chasing the loot towards the hunter

the Icarus-Class generally aids the Daedalus-Class maneuvers with additional firepower and serves as a backing, which protects the battle cruiser in an emergency with strong defense capacities

whenever possible, a Daedalus-Class and an Icarus-Class work together and can complement each other, which is why this combination is also known as the "sword and shield" of the IUSP

(Note: In contrast to Star Trek, where the Enterprise likes to be "the only ship from Starfleet in the quadrant", USOC ships are never allowed to operate alone, but always within a group with at least one other ship. The rule, however, is the work in a group of at least five capital ships (a flight))
