Thunderhawk Assault Fighter
Modularity: This ship has been built with modularity in mind for simplified maintenance and tactical flexibility. Future refit packages have been planned, but not produced.
Production: Mass-Produced. (Anyone.))
Material:
• G-32 Evasive Armor Plating
• Mandalorian Steel airframe
Classification: Starfighter/Light Gunship
Length: 12.5 meters?
Height: 2.5 meters?
Width: 4 meters?
Armament Rating: 14
Defensive Rating: 12
Armament:
• Rotary Particle Beam Cannon
• 4 light weapon hardpoints:
• Rocket pods, 4 per pod
• Blaster cannons
• Ion cannons
• Proton bomb
Squadron Count: 12
Minimum Crew: 1
Optimum Crew: 1 + Astromech Droid
Passenger Capacity: None
Cargo Capacity: 75 Kilograms
Consumables: 5 Days
Maneuverability Rating: 2.5/1.0 hovering
Speed Rating: 2.5
Hyperdrive Class: 2.0
Propulsion
Strengths:
• Very maneuverable at low speeds
• Exceptional ability to hover
Weaknesses:
• Hyperdrive is slow to engage.
• Heavy overall weight compared to Superiority Fighters.
Description: Built to bridge the gap between gunship and Starfighter, the Orar'galaar is an ideal fighter for bringing massive firepower to a battlefield. Boasting superior maneuverability as compared to most gunships, the Orar'galaar is a remarkably capable platform that offers abundant tactical flexibility to any pilot or commander skilled in its use. The fighter is capable of engaging both air and ground targets, but has gained notoriety for its devastating strafing runs. This is mostly because of the large particle beam rotary cannon on its nose. This fighter is a two-seater ship and the Astromech is loaded from the bottom of the vessel using a built-in lift. The port where the head of the Astromech emerges is covered by a retractable armor panel to protect the droid and improve the ship's aerodynamics.
The surprising agility of the Orar'galaar is attributed to three factors.
1. The most noticeable contributor is the overpowered repulsorlift array. Power supplied to the engines can be diverted to the repulsorlifts at any time to deliver massive lifting power on demand. This is known as 'hover mode' and it can be engaged at any time by simply pressing a button mounted to the engine throttle control.
2. The Fighter is very balanced in its construction, and the airframe is made from Mandalorian Steel using construction methods normally found gunships to produce a very durable airframe while keeping weight down. With the rotary cannon equipped the ship is almost perfectly balanced, being just a kilogram front-heavy.
3. One of designers specialized in the creation of trainer ships. Her input was invaluable to making the vessel very easy for pilots to understand and adapt to.
Development Thread: If necessary
Intent: To create an assault fighter capable of filling ground support roles.
Who Can Use This: Anyone who can acquire it.

Summary of Modification: need to add that this fighter is a two-seater ship and that the Astromech is loaded from the bottom of the vessel using a built-in lift. The port where the head of the Astromech emerges is covered by a retractable armor panel to protect the droid and improve the ship's aerodynamics.
Reason for Modification: I'm an idiot. I didn't proof read carefully enough to notice that I never added the data.
Modification:
Minimum Crew: 1
Optimum Crew: 2 + Astromech Droid
Passenger Capacity: 1 pilot, 1 copilot, 1 astromech
Cargo Capacity: 75 Kilograms
