The Damocles-class orbital bombardment platform is a class of spacecraft in service with the Natopian Spacefleet, an branch of the Natopian Defense Force since the entry into service of the NSS Damocles in 1647 AN. Commenced by the Shirerithian Directorate of Research & Engineering as Project 1641-002 under the cover of the "Noon Orchid" Cargo Ship programme with the Saint Andre Trading Company (SATCo) and the House of Osman as ostensible investors. The Noon Orchid Consortium drew in a diverse range of specialist manufacturing and engineering corporations eventually comprising of Dingo Enterprises, Elwynn High-Tech Industries, the ESB Group, Gaelen Technologies Corporation, and Red Bear LLC.
The NSS Apollyon, the much delayed second Damocles-class orbital bombardment platform of the Natopian Spacefleet, was declared operational in late 1698 AN following a fraught twenty year development and construction cycle.
A third of the class, the NSS Dionysius, entered into service in 1718 AN. The platform was built jointly by Dingo Enterprises and Minerva Space Systems at the Natopia Planitia Orbital Shipyards after a twenty year construction and fitting out period.
In 1722 AN, the Natopian government commissioned three more Damocles-class orbital bombardment platforms, expected to enter into service by 1743 AN.
