Venom Orbital Shipyard

The Venom Orbital Shipyard, was the second decommissioned RHA Battle Station that the Venom Pirates stole under the guise of a space station recycling company. The Pirates needed a place that was dedicated to repairng thier ships and thus the older battle station was heavily modified to be a working dry dock. Over the years the station was upgraded with heavy cargo docks. All but two hyper Decimation cannons were removed to make room for extra docks for Mad Dog Class Heavy Space Tugs on the top side, and ship building room on the lower side.

 

The Venom Pirates were well known for stealing raw materials, and weapons smuggling, the majority of which went into building this station and maintaining and modifiying their fleet of small star ships. Later on they began building their own star fighters, and soon after that they began making capital ships. The Snake Head (featured here) was their first ever capital ship. Its second Capital ship the Hellphire was also built here.

 

When the Red Eye Pirates rose to power they brought their ships to the station to be outfitted with weapons, repaired, and rebuilt. They even commssioned new capital ships to be built, such as Red Eye's personal ship the Impure soul, and The Fear Class Dreadnaught. This later backfired on the Venom Pirates when Red Eye double crossed them and used these ships seize control of several Venom Pirate Smuggling posts. It was around this time that the Venom Pirates placed automated satalite turrets to protect the Ship yard.

 

The Venom Pirates managed to hold a majority control over the Venom Star System thanks to its fortified command center and this ship yard. In the end at the battle of Pirates Last Stand, the Venom Pirates surrenderd both stations to the RHA fleet. Today the Ship yard remains operational, with many investors looking to buy it and its assets.
