USC North Star

The USC North Star was an Achilles-class battleship of the United Space Command fleet designed and commanded by Canadian personnel. The North Star had a long service history with the USC and survived many engagements from the Martian Rebellions to the long running Planetary War on Terror. The Star was even on the fast-track to becoming the USC's next flagship to replace the Titan, however, during the early stages of the Second Nuclear War - October 4, 2458, the Star wound up getting destroyed via friendly-fire after an enemy ship broadcasted their own RFID signal within the Star's engineering that, unfortunately, resulted in her destruction.
