Development Thread: N/A
Manufacturer: Sublight Products Corporation
Model: Vaughan Fighter
Affiliation: Hutt Cartel
Modularity: Moderate
Production: Mass-Produced
Material: Durasteel, Chromium parts
Description: Meant to supplement and eventually replace our cheaper SPC Cartel fighters, the Vaughan has increased shields, armor, and firepower at the expense of its size. Speed was maintained by the use of superchargers in the engines that maximized their power output while necessitating the use of chromium in parts of the design. The superchargers take energy directly from the core and inject it directly into the power chain increasing drive pressure and reaction rates while necessitating more build-up of the engines to compensate.
Following a 'quality over quantity' guideline, heavier lasers were used to ensure each shot hit for maximum damage while reducing the stray missed shots that could hit a friendly ship. Torpedo launchers were included as standard to help facilitate attacks against interceptors and small warships. The Vaughan is used where there's a higher chance of prolonged combat where survivability and hitting power in multiple roles are needed for victory.
