Description

Designed and built for the Council of Heads, only nine of this model fighter are currenly flying. This tiny squadron is the sum total of the naval forces defending the planet Knot. Commissioned by the Council Military Advisory Committee and painstakingly built one at a time over the last decade. This fighter is capable of 6G's acceleration, and has a good agility. Unfortunately, the computer is sub-standard. The streamlined hull is lightly armored. Pilots love its ease of handling and responsive controls. However, many military observers consider it a death trap, if it were forced to face more modern/advanced designs.
