ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Meiro Integrated Anti-Missile Deactivation System: This integrated system lessens the effects of Missile Deactivation Transmitters.
Advanced Maneuvering Thrusters: The Strike Eagle features advanced maneuvering thrusters enabling it to have better than average mobility for dogfighting.
Missile Override Control: The Strike Eagle is capable of manually detonating its AASM missiles if the pilot so desires to either force the enemy along a certain vector or do at least some glancing damage if countermeasures are proving to be particularly problematic even if it cannot score a direct hit due to them.
STRENGTHS
Fighter Killer: The Strike Eagle is designed primarily to kill enemy fighters and interceptors to help ensure space or air superiority, with its combination of good maneuverability, blaster cannons, and large complement of agile, dual guidance, air to air/space missiles specialized for dogfighting, enabling it to take on both regular fighters and "swarm" fighters with relative ease.
Good Maneuverability: The Strike Eagle has been upgraded with advanced maneuvering thrusters and lightweight duraplast alloy armor to enable it to have better than average maneuverability in dogfights.
SAWACs Synchronization: It is specially designed to work in conjunction with the Argus SAWACs craft to help with missile guidance, communications, and general combat guidance.
WEAKNESSES
Purpose Built: The Strike Eagle is not a multirole fighter, it is designed for taking out enemy fighters and to a lesser degree enemy interceptors, bombers, and light freighters. Its missiles would only do relatively minor damage to craft larger than these.
Limited Production: The Strike Eagle, XII variant is of limited production, due to the higher quality materials required to produce it and fit in better shields.
DESCRIPTION
The AVSF-1L"Strike Eagle" XIII Battlegroup variant is a limited production variant which deals with the original significant weakness of the regular Strike Eagle, by incorporating higher level composites and better materials with increased cost in order to give it better shields (going from low ---> average). This increases its cost and limits its ability to be mass produced, but shores up its defenses to make not only a well-armed and maneuverable fighter, but one that has good survivability as well. This is basically the main difference.
