- Composite Beam Cannon: A powerful beam weapon formed by combining the fire from the heavy plasma cannons into one continuous beam that lasts a few seconds. It has high destructive potential, equivalent to an entire fighter complement of proton rockets focused into one single attack. Fighters and even some capital ships struck by the beam can incur heavy or catastrophic damage by a well aimed direct hit.
- Caltrop-5 Chaff Gun: A gun that shoots thousands of small durasteel fléchettes to confuse enemy sensors. Never intended as an offensive weapon, the fléchettes themselves don't have much damage potential against hard stationary targets, but small craft and missiles risk destruction by passing through the clouds of shrapnel at high speeds.
- Strapped with an abundance of rockets and boosters across the fuselage, its speed and agility is nearly unmatched.
- Impressive firepower against enemy fighters and capital ship, particularly with its composite beam attack.
- As an ugly, this mashup of parts has poor armor and even worse electrical wiring. It's especially temperamental against Ion weapons and EMPs.
- Has no missiles and lacks long range stand-off capabilities. The Jehuty must use its extreme speed to close in on targets.
- After each use of the composite beam cannon, the plasma cannons require at least a 90-second cool down between uses.
"In the wrong hands, this is either a golden bullet or a flaming coffin."
Frustrated with a certain Corellian who kept trashing their fleet of planes ("unlocking its potential" as the Allyson would say), tensions were high with the maintenance crews of Great River. The last straw was a Kamikaze attack with one of their freshly acquired Bobcats. From there on, the maintenance chief refused to allow Commander Locke to fly any of its newer fighters, relegating her to using their reserves of Uglies.
As a Director of Great River, Allyson's friend Jyoti had the power to veto the maintenance chief, but instead she saw an opportunity to use the Uglies as a test bed for one of her current projects. So she cobbled together a new Ugly, one based around one giant rocket booster lined with even more engines sourced from the likes of A-wings and TIE interceptors.
Lots of boosters, and even more guns.
What she put together was definitely nothing sleek or elegant like the ones the Echani usually favored, but a golden speed demon that relied on pure brute force to blaze a path through the stars, and the enemy.
It was the perfect fit.
