Notes:
The Miyazaki/C was an attempt to answer the criticism of the Miyazaki/E, that
being a need for a small ship to use in anit-Pirate activity. The Miyazaki/C
concentrates its power into a broadside that can be reversed with a simple
roll maneuver. The Miyazaki/C matches the power of the NSL Ehrenhold FF
without sacrificing speed (it does however not have the armor of the
Ehrenhold). However, it could not overcome the political forces that forced a
refit of most Miyazaki's to the Minerva specification. It is an interesting
side note that the other NAC asymetrical design, the Avalon, started going
through refit just after the Minerva conversion of the Miyazaki's.
