An Al'Kesh is a Goa'uld spacecraft designed for the purpose of medium-range bombardment and transportation of troops. It is a maneuverable vessel considering its size and shape.
Weapons
The Al'kesh is armed with two staff cannons located beneath the ship along with other explosives. These explosives are the primary surface bombardment weapon and are powerful enough to collapse the Tok'ra's crystal tunnels.
Defense
Despite its fire power, its defenses are weak and it has no known shields.
Most of the strength is in the type of metal the ship is made out of. The ship can easily be destroyed by a Death Glider.
Engines
The ship is also equipped with sub-light and hyperdrive engines. The engines are based on crystal technolgy like many Gou'ald engines are.
Other Equipment
Al'kesh's a set of ring transporters. Most Al'kesh do not have cloaking devices but some have been adjusted to carry one.
