Javelis LRM Frigate
From Sins of a Solar Empire
The Javelis is the TEC‘s answer to enemy weapon emplacements which would otherwise cause heavy damage against a fleet. With their exceptional long-range and damage potential, the Javelis can quickly obliterate an enemy, and with Clustered Warheads, groups of smaller frigates don‘t stand a chance beneath its devastating area of effect attack. However, the Javelis‘ weak armor and shields make it an easy target, particularly for enemy fighters.
Extracted from the game manual
Cheapest among all of the long range frigates, the Javelis sacrifices everything for firepower. Support for support, resource for resource, a fleet of Javelis frigates can deal more damage to a single target faster than any of the other long range frigates. This is due to the relatively low support and resource cost, about 2/3 of either of the other two equivalents. However they must be closely guarded as bombers or light combat frigates can quickly shred them. Their special ability, once researched, allows them to deal area damage for a short duration at no penalty, making them perfect for supporting large engagements.
