| As a capital ship killer, ''Minerva'' is fitted with missile tubes and high-grade artillery cannons across both bow and dorsal frames. These missile tubes can be retrofitted to also unleash [[mine (Deadlock)|mine]], [[PCM]], and [[EMP]] ordnance. Heavy and medium guns line the ventral hull and flight pods.<ref name="spacedock"/>
| |
|
| |
| For fighter and support ship defense, rapid-targeting point defense cannons line port and starboard sides. Due to the minimal armor plating, many weapons are easily mounted on numerous hardpoints across ''Minerva'''s structure.<ref name="spacedock"/>
| |
|
| |
| Two wings of [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]]s are assigned as standard to ''Minerva''s, while [[Raptor (Deadlock)|Raptor]] and other support craft are supplied as mission parameters dictate.

| Following the design aesthetic of the ''[[Artemis (Deadlock)|Artemis]]''-class, ''Minerva'' is a more compact iteration that reduces bulk and endurance in favor of large offensive potential. As a result of its compact size, ''Minerva'' spearheads the light battlestar sub-class, leading to later iterations such as [[Valkyrie type battlestar|''Valkyrie''-]] and [[Orion class battlestar|''Orion''-class battlestar]].<ref name="spacedock"/>

| ''Minerva''s were built for one purpose: surgical, speedy elimination of capital warships.<ref name="spacedock"/>

| This ability is firmly established after the battlestar ''[[Minerva (Deadlock)|Minerva]]'', rushed into deployment, finds itself fighting—and successfully dispatching—three ''[[Arachne]]''s that had destroyed one of [[Scorpia]]'s secondary shipyards.<ref name="spacedock-minerva">{{cite_web|url=https://youtu.be/zLlVMQbvNRU?t=112|title=Battlestar Galactica: Minerva Class Light Battlestar - Deadlock Proving Grounds - Spacedock|date=11 May 2018|accessdate=16 August 2019|name=Spacedock|format=video|language=English}}</ref>
