Description:
The QRC-47 by Silk Holdings is one of the newest offerings on the galactic market. Designed initially as a civilian courier vessel for use with precious cargo and information, as well as a blockade runner, the QRC was designed with speed in mind. On top of this requirement, the use of advanced photometry, LIDAR and multispectral camera equipment was installed in the systems to provide the best in scouting assistance, for both geo-mapping and tracking of enemy ships and locations. Only recently, was the use of these pieces of equipment realized for a military application.
Under the guidance of Commander Coren Starchaser, the engineers at Silk Holdings began to modify the base QRC-47 into the QRF-47, the Quick Response Fighter. Designed to be used as a scout and interceptor, the primary focus of the vessel has not changed, but with the addition of weapons systems, at the sacrifice of the SLAM engines, the QRF-47 has become a standard interceptor and first response craft in Alliance military units
Development Thread: If required
