== Description ==
The '''Icarus''' is a large-sized carrier with very good combat capabilities. With its [[Turrets]] and 2 [[Valkyrie]]s, the '''Icarus''' is a powerful combat-based [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]. Unlike most Carriers, it has very high Turret firepower and can fight against a variety of ships, ranging from small [[:Category:Frigate|Frigates]] to large [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]]. It may even have a chance to defeat a [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]], though this requires [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] support and much skill.
