ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Ablative Armor

Strengths:

• Better agility and firepower.
• Ablative armor.
• Sensor jammers.

Weaknesses:

• Particle cannons can be difficult to aim due to bolt speed and rate of fire.
• Ablative armor will burn away.
• Lower squadron count.

Description: Designed after the Battle of Concord Dawn, which wiped out two of the three GF-2 TwinTail squadrons, CST engineers developed an updated version of the fighter. Keeping the same basic spaceframe, the GF-2's B variant mounted a pair of sensor jammers, advanced scanners, and added countermeasures in the form of chaff and flares. Along with these changes, the armament was changed, swapping out the four heavy laser cannons for CST's own PC-3 Uur particle cannons.

The fighter's test pilot, as a bit of a joke, nicknamed the fighter the "Super TwinTail," sarcastically poking fun at the minor changes that he felt we're going to help it much. It's unknown exactly how this ended up also serving as the fighter name, though it's rumored that the engineers just wanted to turn the joke on its head. In the end, the jammers and new weapons did prove to have a great affect. The particle cannons helped give the Super TwinTail a better punch, if at the cost of the rate of fire and bolt speed. The jammers also made the fighter more difficult to lock.
