The Orion-class Space Station, simply known as Orion-class was a space station and dreadnought-size battleship of the United Membership, as well as the largest warship in the Gensoginga. The UM describe this ship as space station to avoid the treaty that limit a military ship size to 100 meter or less. The Orion-class was serve by both UMAF and UMSF although the UMSF variants limit the armament with defense purpose only as they were humanitarian peacekeeper, however, they can be armed at any point for war.
Being construct since 1982 by Ioma Orbital Shipyard until the ship is launch in 1997 ADG following of 15 year of construct. It was largest and most powerful warship in the galaxy despite the surround controversies of this ship being violate to the treaty and waste all resource on build such a gigaintic ship.
By the time in year 2002. Only two Orion-class were built and operate are UMS Aixon and UMS Spira which both serve on UMAF and UMSF. However, UMS Axion was destroyed above Hamanisowa following the cursed that warship was employ which spark the conflict between two. After the destruction of UMS Axion, the UMAF order 2 of these warship to be built and complete within 6 month which cause all Ioma production focus on building these ship. This time, the Ioma gain experience on building this ship which the reason why is quicker than usual.
