Hey, my first model of the year 2007!!
This is my WIP of the Corona Class Heavy Assault Ship. Yes, it is an own design.
In 2090 the European Alliance launched their first major warship, the Libertè. This first concept of a space borne warfare unit was a big success, and three more vessels were launched. The EA was then the second armed power in space, after the commercial American-Australian "Fortune Consortium" putted an experimental spaceship with light weaponry into space (thus eventually breaking the Weapons-In-Space-Treaty of the Cold War and the later Weapon-Restriction Agreement of 2009).
These ships were still build on Earth and then launched into space...
Forty years later, more classes of warships of either Chinese or American-Australian and European origin entered fleet service, the European Alliance opened up a secret facility in the Asteroid Belt. The secret did not remain that secret for long, a five kilometer assembly yard and massive cargo shipping couldn't be hidden effectively.
The EA was up to build the largest ship to that date: the Corona class Heavy Assault ship. Many smaller caliber guns, one huge double-projectile rail gun plus long range turrets and Naval Infantry deployment.

Hehe. Actually the USS Sulaco of Aliens "inspired" me to this design.
