Perry Rhodan - Light Cruiser "Iceland" of the "STAATEN" class, July 2219

In the Perry Rhodan series, the classic spaceship used by humans in this series is a globe with a torus around its equator to house the engines.
Those "Kugelraumer" were produced from "small" 60 meter ones - which also were used as tenders on bigger spaceships - up to the classic ultra-battleship with a diameter of 2500 meters.

The ship:

The light cruisers of the "Staaten" (Country) class were mainly used for reconnaissance operations.
Those ships were build in large numbers and served in all fleets of the Solar Empire. Many ships were demilitarised after their active duty and then used for various civilian or scientific usage as a second career.
With a diameter of 100meters they were only equipped with light armour and armament, but with engines compared to much bigger 500 meter battlecruisers.
They were able to accelerate to jump speed in just about 8 minutes, their FTL drive was a hyper jump engine. The ships had a crew of 150 members and had a few one-man space fighters and three-men destroyers on board, plus some additional "Shift" flying tanks.

The model shows the light cruiser "Iceland" landed on a foreign planet in July 2219.
