The Adip class Missile Fighter was produced in vast numbers and carried on a wide variety of warships.
- It is a military ship and a combatant smallcraft.
Description (Specifications)
This design was a clear representative of Vilani ship building philosophies. A sleek, streamlined saucer that was simple and efficient, quick and agile. It carried two crew and a pair of missile launchers for the swarming missile volleys, from a safe distance, that was a favored tactic. Everything was going great with that, by the way, until they met the Solomani...
Basic Ship Characteristics
Following the Imperial Navy and IISS Universal Ship Profile and data, additional information is presented in the format shown here. The small craft factor indicates the number of squadrons (of ten craft) carried on the ship. Tonnage on the universal ship profile is shown in kilotons (thousands of tons) where necessary. [1]

History & Background (Dossier)
The Imperial Navy used fighter craft, but Vilani fighter doctrine was not very aggressive. A fighter squadron’s function was to emerge from its mother ship, remain at a distance from the enemy, add to the weight of the fleet’s missile volleys, and then return for reloading. As a result, Vilani fighter pilots tended to be more lightly trained and to have less esprit de corps than their Terran counterparts... a fatal flaw once the Terrans built their own fighter wings and their own (much more aggressive) fighter doctrine.
