Description/Overview:
         A with nearly all the Prodono Alliance fleet, next to nothing is known about the Ik'Zhor Cho Type-147998 other than it is an ancient pre-Prodono Galactic Republic (not to be confused with the much older Prodono Stellar Republic) corvette that was built sometime during the Prodono Alliance (Galaxy-spanning political body that succeeded the Prodono Stellar Republic). The Ik'Zhor Cho Type-147998 was a mass produced space corvette armed with a pair of triple-MASER beam cannon as its main weapon systems. This microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation beam turret fired a graviton-guided stream of rotating electromagnetic radiation that "bonded" into one spinning "rope-like" beam approximately ten-feet in front of the turret after being discharged from the emitters. This vortex effect made the MASER beam very effective against most other fighting ships including the Republic ships used later.
        The Ik'Zhor Cho Type-147998 corvettes encountered by the Earth-borne powers in the late 2180s were operated by Prodono android forces and were very old. Most had been in hibernation state with their nuclear-fusion reactors in a state of stasis (meaning nuclear material was separated and not active allowing for near infinite storage). The Prodono used an atomically unstable isotope of their own creation dubbed barrillium 455 by the Principality of Altair scientists who discovered the android fleet at Altair 6. This isotope was stored at absolute zero (in space) to slow down its degradation (half-life of about 1.5 million years, and a usable lifespan of approximately 550,000 years). The isotope, when combined with liquid Deuterium or Tritium within an electromagnetic super-criticality chamber, allows for gigawatt output levels in a compact nuclear-fusion reactor.
