Sounds pretty plausible, but I have to wonder if these ships have any direct offensive capabilities at all. Looking at the ship's design, it seems pretty poorly suited to close-range combat; beyond lacking any visible hardpoints or exterior cannons, its long "nose" would give it a battlefield silhouette much larger than would be practical, making it difficult to maneuver in a fight. Perhaps it fulfills a role similar to a modern aircraft carrier (it's possible that nose is where a majority of the aircraft are kept?). It's likely fitted with close-mid range defensive weaponry and countermeasures, if that.

That said, I can't wait until we get to see some of the big guns, the battleships and dreadnoughts of this "modern ship" theme. I want to see some firepower, ya know? xD
