Starships

When I make Zhodani ships, I need the Zhodani alphabet painting on ship hull such as ship’s name or resist rationality code.

Do you know the Zhodani alphabet?
I regret to inform you that in Classic Traveller, all Zhodani language was shown using latin lettering (just like English uses).

Zdetl (language)
Zdetl/Lexicon

I even checked the Alien Module: Zhodani and found no imagery for a Zhodani specific lettering system.
There may be specific images scattered around Classic Traveller showing Zdetl written in native lettering, but I'm unable to find such imagery for you quickly.
 
Thank you for survey.
I cannot get enough information about Zhodani alphabet too.
I have to make an alternative method considering efficiency, for example using strange font.

An escort destroyer is a small warship built to full naval standards which is optimized for anti-small craft and anti-SDB duties in wartime, but which retains many of the capabilities of a traditional fleet destroyer, enabling it to conduct operations in conjunction with main fleet units as well as carrying out convoy escort and ASW patrols. Typically, escort destroyers have a high enough speed and sufficient armament of guns and missiles that they are capable of skirmishing successfully with enemy destroyers.

This painting was drawn in reference to the CT S09 work of Paul Jaquays *1).

Wow, that is very beautiful!
 
The Chrysanthemum class destroyer escort is a small, fast vessel intended for fleet and squadron escort duties. The design is old, but efficient, with examples of the ship serving in the Imperial Navy for over a century. Chrysanthemums are ubiquitous, being encountered with larger fleet elements as well as working alone. This class of destroyer escort has been pressed into service in a variety of non-escort duties, including orbital patrols, police operations, garrison duties, and even limited strike missions*1).

XUN MINING LIMITED is a community of sole proprietors who prospect rare metals in the asteroid belt, with about 20 exploration vessels, and the captain of each exploration vessel serves as an executive director of the community. Established in 960, Xun mining limited is a small prospecting company based in Glisten. However, the experienced professionals and creative team can design customized special prospecting in the Glisten and the District 268 sub sectors. The megacorporation Baraccai Technum (BT) appreciates XUN's technical capabilities and often hires the company to exploratory prospecting of new veins.

This painting was drawn in reference to the work of William H. Keith, Jr*8).

This is the last shot of seeker.
I love the varied designs you have for air-rafts. Flat ones like pallet transporters, the usual 'flying jeep', flying truck cabs that can pick up detachable modules and the zero-g one with arms for mining/manufacturing.

Thanks comment!
Your words encourage me.

TheChrysanthemum class Block V was first procured in 1075. The Block V began commissioning just before the Fourth Frontier War (1082 to 1084). At least 100 Block 5 and updated Block 4 ships were deployed in the Fourth Frontier War.

In Block 5, the hangar for the 50dt cutter at the rear was removed, the bow was extended, and a hangar for the 20dt boat was installed at the bottom of the hussel. Five triple sandcasters were removed, the particle acceleration cannon was increased from one to two, and four triple missile turrets were installed to enhance the attack capability. The Model 9/fib computer on board greatly automates the ship's operations, reducing the number of crew members and improving habitability.
