The Kirchner class Patrol Fighter is a combatant smallcraft.

Description (Specifications)[edit]

A fleet admiral decided that they needed a mixed triple turret and that a pulse laser was essential, as a result the power plant grew and soon there was barely room for a pair of couches, let alone a small stateroom. Acceleration is poor for a fighter at 3-G's and evasion agility, a needed defense for craft this size, is non-existent. A single sand caster is hardly adequate defense, so dog fighting is avoided at all costs.
