Always focused on marvellous attack craft suited for any warzone, Aresian Naval Engineering got the order for a heavy bomber which could deliver stunning amounts of versatile explosives to a battlefield, operating from a carrier. With direct and indirect weapons, the Eradicator is capable of flattening an entire battlefield with bombs and missiles while doing strafing runs on the way back with its heavy prow weapons. The bomber sacrifices both maneuverability and a hyperdrive for additional weapons as well as speed and protection.
Deployed primarily by the Battlefleet due to its carrier-based nature, the Eradicator is a worthy addition to the strike craft the Hegemony currently uses. Not optimal for ship to ship missions and definitely requiring at least air superiority if not supremacy, it is very vulnerable to attacking interceptors, even though it has speed and protection, but it will not do well in a dog-fight of any kind.
