The Atlantis is a UEF superunit, its is a submersible aircraft carrier.


IPB Image IPB Image


It is around twice the size of the UEF capital battleship, and i assume quite heavily armoured.


IPB Image


It is the perfect unit for establishing air superiority in a naval engagement.


IPB Image IPB Image


It is armed with 4 dual anti-air missile pods, that deploy 2 ether side at the front of the ship, these appear to be the same kind of missile based anti-air defence seen around UEF bases, but x4.


IPB Image


At the back it seems to launch its jets from behind 10 retractable doors.

Concept art shows it may be armed with torpedo tubes aswell, but its unknown if these will be on the final version.

As of yet it has no known weaknesses.

definately ohne of the main reasons to play UEF... i´d like to see how fast it can launch its aircrafts, and if it can build aircrafts...

Is not that big. A Typhoon class submarines can easly match the size of a battleship. Still it looks cool.

Just that other Super units seams to be a little more Super compared to normal once. But then again ships are large allready.

apart from long then no lol

but built times in this shud be short compared to C&C, because of the quantity of units built

errm the build time and rescource costs of the only experimetal super unit in TA, the Krogoth, was really insane, but then again, it had insane armor and firepower.
So the best guess is that those experimentals will build long and be really expensive, but worth it

well ofcouse therl have long build times, i was just saying the build time of a standard tank is probably shorter than C&C, because of the mass of units, it would take hours in C&C to mass that many tanks

no need to go to other supcom fansites, they dont have more info.... its simply observation, reading the previews, interviews and making some obvious conclusions

its a pretty good guess that all planes will be vtol meaning they can start and land vertically, like harrier jump jets e.g. thats the way TA did it.
so the back part will open up and several planes will be able to land and start there simultaneously
