The original design, Mk. I, had no weapons and no repair pods. The Mk. II design carried weapons but no repair pods. The Mk. III design obviously includes them. The Chieftain is the only ship known that has never seen a combat officer onboard, and due to its incredible mass can only move at a top speed of 900kmph.

The

It was expeditiously retrofitted for war by using the original designated empty storage space to house the necessary machinery for the onboard weapons and missile system.

In addition, the vessel boasts a feature no other Mothership-class spacecraft in the entire Hiigaran Navy can claim; a massive nuclear-based cannon that has a theoretical maximum reach of 900km. The target must however be significantly closer than 900km in order to maintain the effectiveness of the weapon.
