Strengths:
+ Packs a punch - With four lasers and two torpedo launchers, the Dawn Starfighter can dish out damage as it needs to, giving it the ability to fit multiple roles
+ Has decent speed and maneuverability, allowing it to keep up with other standard starfighters easily
+ Has an advanced targeting system to allow it to have precision when firing on a target
Weaknesses:
+ Weak spot - The Dawn's armor is weaker in the rear, meaning a well placed shot to the back of the ship will most likely disable or destroy it
+ Jack of all Trades - Because the Dawn is designed to be a ship to fill multiple roles, it doesn't exactly excel in any one role for the pilot
Description:
As the next ship in Aurora Industries's fighter line, the AI-007 was designed to be a counterpart to the famous Incom X-Wing in terms of the variety of roles the ship can fill for the person who purchases one. The AI-007 "Dawn" Starfighter is designed to be about as standard and well-rounded starfighter as one can get, with the ship being equipped with four laser cannons and two torpedo launchers with four torpedoes each. An advanced targeting system was loaded into the ship to allow its weapon systems to have greater precision when dealing with an enemy target, whether it be a ground target that is getting strafed or an enemy ship in space.
The Dawn starfighter also has very good speed and maneuverability, allowing it to keep up with other starfighters of similar configurations and roles. It has standard armor and shielding system, but does have a weaker spot in its armor to the rear of the ship that would allow an enemy pilot to disable or destroy the craft with well-placed shot to the rear. The Dawn is also more of Jack of all Trade ship, so while it can fill a variety of roles, it doesn't excel in any field above what a fighter designed to fit a specific role could do.
