	Salamis-Class Cruiser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although the Salamis class would suffer even more causalities throughout the remainder of the war, they proved to be more effective when used in conjunction with mobile suits, a lesson lost upon the architects of the Salamis Kai redesign a few years later.
		The Admiralty was interested in improving the three major problems of the original Salamis cruisers: insufficient firepower, the slow speed of the cruisers (the original Salamis class ships had only one engine), and a better point-defense system for protection against enemy mobile suits.
		The design of the Salamis-Class Cruiser 0083 Variant was heavily modified, with additional beam weaponry (including three double-barreled beam cannon turrets, a first for the Salamis class), AA/AMS defense, increased missile capability (the six-cell launchers were exchanged for larger 15-cell launchers, eight internal VLS cells, and larger engines.

		The Federation originally commissioned the Alexandria class shortly after the One Year War, and the ships were set to be delivered in time for the Federation's naval review in UC 0083; however, setbacks during the outfitting pushed back their launch date.
		After the defeat of the Titans, the Alexandria class became an uncomfortable reminder of them, and the class was quickly and quietly decommissioned, the last unit mothballed before the Second Neo-Zeon War in UC 0093.
		Decades after the retirement of the last Alexandria class ship from the Earth Federation Space Force, the Gaunland, a ship of that class, was recommissioned and refitted by the League Militaire to act as their flagship against the invading Zanscare Empire.

	Cruiser Motorcycle Clubs
		Cruiser Motorcycle Clubs and Riding Clubs often imply that members ride a motorcycle that is either an American made motorcycle such as a Harley-Davidson, Indian, or custom, or the motorcycle is an import over a certain cubic displacement which is not a sportsbike / crotch rocket, such as a Honda Valkyrie or Goldwing.
		If you’re new to motorcycling, the cruiser class of motorcycles tend to be the larger motorcycles, usually with windshields, saddlebags, and perhaps fairings.
		Memberships in cruiser clubs are usually open to men and women but are occasionally restricted to a particular gender.

	Roumanian Cruiser Elisabeta
		Elisabeta's fame rests not with her physical stature, for indeed, the destroyers of the "Marasti" class were of comparable size, while the "Regele Ferdinand" class destroyers exceeded and the auxiliary cruisers Regele Carol I and Dacia dwarfed her in both displacement and armament.
		On 15th May 1889 Elisabeta took to sea, cruising the east coast of the Black Sea for two months on a course that saw her visit the Romanian ports of Sulina and Constanta, Varna in Bulgaria, Constantinople, and finally a call at Odessa in southern Russia.
		Further cruises took Elisabeta as far as the Baltic, where she paid host to the King of Sweden during a Stockholm layover, as well as multiple returns to the Mediterranean along with her by now regular tours of duty in the Black Sea.

	GundamOfficial :: Universal Century :: Zeta Gundam :: Mechanics :: Alexandria
		The Alexandria is the first in a new series of Earth Federation space cruisers specifically designed to serve as mobile suit carriers.
		While its modular construction is reminiscent of Zeon's old Musai cruiser, an Alexandria-class vessel can carry an entire squadron of mobile suits, allowing a single ship to operate as an independent taskforce.
		The Titan fleet includes several of these cruisers, but the most familiar is the Alexandria itself, which is usually commanded by Jamaican Daninghan or Gady Kinsey.

	Powder coating and Polishing - Tech Review - Motorcycle Cruiser
		While neither Stankovich, Andrews, nor anyone at Motorcycle Cruiser has heard of problems associated with powder coating or polishing, extra care should be taken during the assembly and a test of full functionality should be conducted after modifying anything on a motorcycle as important as the brakes.
		When compared with the cost of aftermarket replacements of these parts, the $500 (all parts combined) powder coat, including the candy and the $305 for [polishing, are cost-effective investments that pay dividends every time someone comments on how great the bike looks.

		The next morning a steam pipe on the funnel, damaged during the attack was repaired, a prize crew put on board and she was sent to a rendezvous point.
		Atlantis was no match for a heavy cruiser armed with eight 8-inch guns, and even with both engines fully operational, was slower by about 14 knots, so Rogge knew his only hope was to lure her closer, within range of his guns and torpedoes.
		But the cruiser, from long range, fired two 8-inch salvos, one to the left, one to the right, to which Rogge responded by stopping, signalling RRR, and identifying his ship as the Dutchman Polyhemus.

	Vessels of Starfleet - A Speculative History of the Miranda Class
		Considering that the term Constitution class is now used to cover all variations on this design (Bonhomme Richard, Enterprise, etc.) it seems logical to assume that the term Miranda class also refers to the oldest existing variation on that design.
		In addition, a number of vessels were constructed, intended to patrol the borders of UFP space and monitor Klingon and Romulan (and Gorn and Tholian, etc., etc.) ship movements and communications activity, these vessels had highly specialised sensor systems.
		The Soyuz class was retired from service in 2287, possibly because of the superior sensor suites on the Enterprise (II), Constellation and Excelsior class vessels or possibly because of treaty limitations, or even simply because of budget cuts.
