ship design

[captnchuck]

Has anyone designed the following ships from Sector fleet?
40000tn Tarawa Marine Carrier
5000tn Outrider Assault Lander
2000tn Huscarle Cruiser?

Not that I'm aware of.

Any descriptions (beyond the designation)?

Tarawa is an assault ship.
Carries a Brigade of Marines,Battalion of Grav Cav,wing of fighters, assault landers. Drop capable
some offensive weapons,space-to-surface bombardment.

Outrider is a marine assault lander. basically carried to system and lands directly on surface

Huscarle is a beefed up Broadsword mostly used in Noble service.

Huscarle makes sense - The Mercenary Cruiser would be easy to upgun with higher TL stuff, and the 'owner's suite' could be made suitably palatial for a noble without much trouble.

a 5000 dTon battle rider dropship is a disdurbing concept, though!
