The '''Vanguard''' is a very compact [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] and the smallest in the game. It has low [[Turrets|Turret]] and [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] firepower and is commonly used as a support [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]. The outside appears very armored, but it has rather low health for a [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]-class ship. | The '''Vanguard''' is a very compact [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] and the smallest in the game.
