The Antietam-class ships were converted from Columbus-class space supply ships as auxiliary carriers under the Federation's "70s Armament Reinforcement Plan," which provided space fighter operational capabilities such as catapults and maintenance facilities in the cargo bay.
The Antietam class is very similar in appearance to the [[Columbus-class]] supply ship and bears fundamentally the same design, however it features larger, more noticeable engines that extended outward from the main body of the ship to either side. The bridge, though the same shape and in basically the same location, is raised above the level of the rest of the ship. The main fuselage of the ship is longer and the dorsal body of the ship features a few drosaly raised sections not present in the Columbus.
 
 
The Antietam-class had no armaments and was completely unprotected if it did not have an escort. It depends upon their mobile suits to protect them and fend off enemy units. It can carry multiple GM units within their hangers and be refueled and resupplied quickly during battles. The Antietam-class appears nearly, if not completely, identical to the Columus Kai-class. It is unclear if they are different or a redesignation of the same class. Twenty-four ships were known to have been constructed.

The Antietam-class is a support carrier that appeared in Mobile Suit Variation.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Antietam-class ships were converted from Columbus-class space supply ships as auxiliary carriers under the Federation's "70s Armament Reinforcement Plan," which provided space fighter operational capabilities such as catapults and maintenance facilities in the cargo bay.

History

A total of 24 ships were built by the end of the One Year War, and several, including the first "Antietam," were commissioned before the outbreak of the war. On January 15, 0079, the first Antietam, equipped with a large number of FF-S3 Saberfish, was assigned to the 1st Orbital Fleet of the Federation Space Force and participated in the "Battle of Loum," said to be the largest fleet battle of the Universal Century. However, it became a target of the new mobile suits introduced by the Principality of Zeon and was sunk without any notable results. However, several Antietam-class ships, including the "Ericsson" and the "Valentine," which survived the One Year War, were further refitted and operated as MS carriers after the war.
