It was designed to engage enemy squadrons with it's smart missile systems. It has foldable wings/foils, making it compact in ship's hanger. It's 2 sub-light engines make it a fast deployed and responsive sub-light interceptor. The DV SI-9 is the primary attack fighter group on the Alderaani Devo, that engages in-coming enemy fighters.

Manufacturer: Arma Tech Industries

If you'd please change this to the "Arma Tech Combat Systems" to match the approved company submission's name. Can you show me that [member="Draco Vereen"] is okay with you using his company to produce this ship? A screenshot of a conversation or having him simply liking this post will do for me.

Armament: Very High Multi Missile launchers.

5 forward laser cannons

If you'll move the 5 laser cannons to the armament section please.

Smart missile system

Tell me a little bit more about these smart missiles. Most Star Wars missiles have at least some tracking capability at the starship level. What makes this different than the average missile?

 

[Duke Kyle DeVoe]

Ok, ommited smart missile system from advance systems, as you stated there already exists smart missiles...so they are standard.

Corrected the manufacturer name'


Below is the PM I sent Draco on May 3rd, asking permission. As of today, he still has not read it yet. You can put this on hold until he responds to me or hits like (which I will ask him to do).
I went forward with this due to the fact that he supports Alderaan and Queen [member="Faith Organa"] and as I am arming Alderaan for Queen and Country, I expect his approval. But I'm game and can wait for his reply.

Edit: Update on this.
Just posted in the Arma Tech factory request thread. Didn't know there was one, but it appeared today on the board as someone had posted today and I saw it on the front page.
Anyway, explained that I sent Draco a message by PM.

Apparently he has not been on line. As thus, I requested in same post; [member="Laira Darkhold"] (sorry if spelling is off) to consider my request to manufacture my subs it in the absence of Draco.

[member="Duke Kyle DeVoe"], no worries, let me know when he gets back to you. Alternatively, you could find another company to make this. If there isn't a Chaos company that you have available (or if you don't want to make one), you can use an unclaimed canon shipbuilding company, like CorelliSpace instead.

Overall, this is about one rating too high. As always, you can balance this by lowering a rating, adding or expanding a significant weakness (like the atmospheric performance), or lowering production level.

 

[Duke Kyle DeVoe]

Ok, lowered mass produced to Limited.

Got OK from [member="Laira Darkhold"], in post 343 in the Arma Tech Industries thread.

 

[Gir Quee]

Awesome. Pending Secondary Approval. Thanks! [member="Jamie Pyne"]

 

[Zef Halo]

Approved.
