-MULTIPLE VECTOR ASSAULT MODE (MVAM)-

The MVAM is a completely new system that is currently only in use on Prometheus class vessels.

It allows the ship to seperate into 3 completely independent, warp-capable vessels that can be controlled from by the Computer, the Main Bridge or from Battle Bridges in each ship. This gives the ship the ability to attack from different angles (Hence Multiple Vector), and the combination is lethal.

The Commanding Officer takes command of the Upper section, which has the most speed but is less heavily armed. The Chief Tactical Officer takes command of the Lower section, which is the slowest but the most heavily armed. The Executive Officer takes command of the Middle section which is a compromise between speed and armament. Each individual Battle Bridge is connected to the Main Bridge by a single high-speed, dedicated turbolift.

In the case of the Upper section, one warp nacelle folds out of the bridge plateau and one folds out of the underside for low-speed warp travel (Maximum warp 4). The other two sections use two each of the four main nacelles. Each section has a small M/ARA reactor, with the Middle and Lower section reactors linking to provide power when the ship is in connected flight mode.

The ship's computer can remotely pilot the Middle and Lower sections to a specified coordinated attack pattern, but results are better when the ships are being controlled by sentient beings. Each section has its own dedicated Tactical Computer Coordination System (TCCS). Each ship's TCCS is in constant realtime communication with the others'. This allows for execution of very complex tactical manoeuvres, some of which are classified and their existence known only by the Captain and Executive Officer.

Full MVAM seperation (All ships 500m apart) can be carried out in 4 minutes 32 seconds from cold shutdown of MVAM systems, but upon initiation of Yellow or Red Alert status the systems are brought to hot standby, where full seperation can be carried out in 56 seconds if required.
