====== Starhawk interstellar fighter ======

This small space-superiority interstellar fighter is a fast,
agile design intended for dogfights and strafing. 

It is thin skinned but heavily protected by a defensive force screen.

Unusual for fighters, it has an engine room for repairs and a bunk for its crew to allow interstellar voyages.

The Starhawk’s 15m long streamlined hull masses 30 tons (SM +5).

Some fleet units that have gotten the TL 11 upgrades use this as their 30 ton fighter, offering a large increase in combat power over the previous [[Meteor]], but mostly it is used as in fighter squadrons that are not tasked to fleets.

This is the more prestigious starfighter than the [[Hornet]].
