Species 8472 Energy Focusing Ship

The energy focusing ship was an organic starship utilized by Species 8472. Larger than its Species 8472 bioship counterpart, the vessel was used to focus energy from other bioships to form an extremely powerful direct energy weapon. This is completely with the assistance of eight bioships that would form a ring around the energy-focusing ship and fire on it. The energy-focusing ship amplified and focused the energy bolts of the eight bioships into one huge bolt. This energy beam was capable of destroying whole planets.
