U.S.F. Hermes

U.S.F. Hermes is the longest serving Sol Federation ship in the fleet, it is a communications ship but during war time it is also Central Command for the fleet. It never leaves the Sol System, travelling generally between Earth and Jupiter, it is under the Command of Admiral Joseph Collins.

The Hermes has been in service since 2410, though it is constantly being upgraded and modified. It is also the largest ship in the fleet, being large enough to hold nearly 100,000 personnel; this includes communications officers, ops officers, marines and a large armada of Short range fighters and pilots.

The Hermes also has quite a few civilians on board, family members of long serving officers for the most part. It is known as a city ship, as it has everything from shops to a large park with a lake, living plants and even a few animals.

The Hermes is heavily armed, though it is not a warship, it's maneuverability is strongly lacking, also has a docking port to hold several smaller ships for repairs or R&R of soldiers.
