ADVANCED SYSTEMS
Strengths:
- Fast Response: The Gra'tua JSF has heavy weaponry and a high rate of speed, allowing it to respond quickly and effectively to developing threats on a battlefield, or strike quickly without warning.
- Survival: The Gra'tua is designed to be landed, or crashed on a planet and serve as a temporary housing site, complete with survival gear and enough rations to sustain a pilot for two months. This, along with an on board hyperdrive allows the Gra'tua to serve long term detached missions.
- Frame: The specific design and shape of the Gra'tua make it a large target, forcing the fighter to rely on is speed and shielding to avoid enemy fire.
- Missiles: The Gra'tua lacks any form of missile weaponry, focusing entirely on several banks of laser weaponry, limiting its combat range.
- Size: The size and specific dimensions of the Gra'tau fighter limits the number of ships that can fit effectively in a hangar. Squadron counts are forced to be lower due to the awkward design and dimensions.
