UECNS Hekate (DNX-0008.2)

For the other vessel named UECNS Hekate, see UECNS Hekate (DNX-0008).

UECNS Hekate is a heavily modified Manifest-Beacon-of-Enlightenment-class Compact Chariot, originally named CSFWV Redemption of Sol. Ironically, it was seized from Compact control during the Seventh Battle of Sol by Echo, the Compact's attempt to turn Red Two to their own side, and used to destroy Execution Force Renan before it had a chance to finish off the crippled UECNS Nemesis.

After its capture, Echo redesigned the ship to be more suitable for AI control and to be more like the ships of the Confederacy. She remembered what it felt like to inhabit the original Nemesis-class Hekate, and wanted to be "beautiful" once more. Utilising the capabilities of the factory ship Reginn and resources provided by the Askanj Principality, crew accomodations were mostly removed, existing systems upgraded and new ones added in the reclaimed space. The result was a ship far more powerful than any Chariot in service with the Compact Space Force.
