Jach class siege ship

another modification to the venerable Chargh class of war tugs, this vessel was modified by a more prominent house to carry a single gargantuan siege disruptor. There are few stations or planetary fortification that can withstand the power of its main weapon. Though firing the weapon is risky as it takes up almost 95% of the ships power output. Leaving barely enough to operate life support and requiring the shields and engines to be run on emergency power for the duration of the firing sequence.
This vessel is my take on the Jach which appears in StarTrek: Discovery (https://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/dis-jach-top.jpg)

supporting the main cannon is a large photon torpedo launcher in the customary position. Enough clearance was left to allow the ship's torpedo launcher to also join in the fun.

other then the gun, the most distinct feature of this refit is the replacement of the impulse engines with modern, suitably sized, units
