This new heavy fighter/mini patrol ship is being built in large numbers to allow having mobile fighting force that can be spread really thinly.

This ship was originally designed as a heavily armored, long-range, interstellar fighter bomber built for raiding and deep-strike missions. It is fast and well-protected with a mix of armor and force screens, as well as a defensive turret. It uses a 19 meters long, 100-ton (SM +6) streamlined hull. Unlike most fighters, it has a habitat with a cabin to provide additional comfort and life support on long missions and a bunkroom for a bording party or similar. This has caused the actual deployments to be patrol/scout ship missions instead of fighter.

Front Hull System

• [1-2] Hardened Nanocomposite Armor (total dDR 40).
• [3-4!] Major Batteries (fixed mount 30 MJ improved UV laser each).
• [5] Control Room (C8 computer, comm/sensor 6, and two control stations).
• [6] Medium Batteries (three fixed mount 20cm missile launchers). In most deployments one or two of the launchers are loaded with drones and/or probes.

Central Hull System

• [1] Hardened Nanocomposite Armor (dDR 20).
• [2!] Major Battery (turret with 30 MJ improved UV laser).
• [3] Tactical Array (comm/sensor 8).
• [4] Habitat (one stateroom)
• [5] Habitat (one bunkroom).
• [6-core] Super Fusion Reactor (four Power Points each).

Rear Hull System

• [1] Hardened Nanocomposite Armor (dDR 20).
• [2-3!] Super reactionless Engines (10G acceleration each).
• [4-5!] Stardrive Engine (FTL-1.5).
• [6] Defensive ECM.
• [core!] Light Force Screen (dDR 30).

It has gravitic compensators. The crew consists of a pilot and a gunner.
