[SIZE=9pt]Armoured Compartment for Astromech[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]We all deny it but our Astromechs become important to us, very important and no-one wants to be the person who lets their Astromech be hit by an ion cannon, or have their head blown off by an errant laser blast. The prime reason for an Astromech to have an exposed position was to allow their sensors to supplement the ships so they could watch your back and alert you to any danger. But no longer, thanks to the sensor feed of the Minerva System the Astromech is able to provide the same effect while secure in the heart of the fighter allowing it better access to the ship's systems to effect repairs as needed. Of course, this comes with the disadvantage that if the ship is disabled then the Astromech is unable to provide any support or communications, and cannot be freed without cutting open the fighter to rescue them.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]ADVANCED SYSTEMS[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]Hermes[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]The Hermes is an advanced communication system created by Locke and Key Mechanics which is designed to provide a secure means of communication through the use of quantum key distribution.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]Minerva Sensors[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]The Minerva system is a collection of sensors designed to create a representation of the battlespace surrounding the user, allowing them to keep a track of targets and threats around them. The system by itself just a series of sensors that can feed into the ship's screens, but when paired with the Minerva HUD it provides a picture of the space around the ship. This makes it harder to surprise the pilot since the system can highlight any threats creeping up on them, or terrain that might be dangerous.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]Advanced Maneuvering System[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]The Fang possesses several Maneuvering jets positioned around the ship that gives the fighter the ability to almost dance around the battlefield. With the aid of the advanced spatial awareness provided by the Minerva, it can safely navigate the most difficult of terrains thanks to the manoeuvring system, avoiding enemy fire and hazardous terrain.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]Strengths[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]:[/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=9pt]Advanced Maneuvering System[/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=9pt]Secured communications[/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=9pt]Minerva System[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Weaknesses[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]:[/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=9pt]Wide wing base: Takes up more space limiting the size of the available squadron. [/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=9pt]Difficult to master the controls: While the Advanced Maneuvering System allows the ship to dance, it’s hard to fully master the system leaving this a ship only to be used by the best otherwise you risk spinning into the line of an attack not away from it.[/SIZE]

  • [SIZE=9pt]Not quite there: While fast and manoeuvrable the Fang is no match for a true interceptor in terms of speed, relying on its superior firepower and defences to try to extricate it from engagements it can’t win.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Description[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]:[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] [/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]The Fang is Locke and Key Mechanic’s first foray into combat focused starships. In normal Locke and Key policy they didn’t try to work their way into the market from the bottom but aimed to launch a product that would be able to compete at the top end of the market. Built as a space superiority fighter the Fang is fast, manoeuvrable and heavily armed. Thanks to the Advanced Maneuvering System it is able to spin to dance in and out of attacks, engaging targets before escaping. The Fang is designed to shine in the middle of a firefight, depending on its advanced systems and the required skill of a pilot to weave between gunfire to deliver knockout blows to the enemy starfighters clearing the way for the heavy attack craft such as bombers and capital ships to do their thing. As a single man fighter, the Fang is designed to engage and be able to hold its own with the best out there.[/SIZE]
