<strong>Human Fighters</strong><br/><br/>To be honest fighter design hasn't changed all that much. They look like F-14s with a little bit of a more angled look. The wingspan is generally bigger. And they might have anywhere from one to three pairs of wings.<br/><br/>Light Fighters:<br/><br/>Stiletto: The lightest of the human fighter class. They are an interceptor. Fast but poorly armored. Carrying only two laser cannons and two missiles. It is shaped like a dart has two boosters and only one set of wings cut back like an arrow head.<br/><br/>Hornet: A bit bigger than the Stiletto. The hornet has a more traditional look. Three boosters and only one pair of wings. It looks more like an old 20th century fighter craft, but with the typically more angled look. Carries two laser cannons and three heat seekers.<br/><br/>Medium Class:<br/><br/>Rapier: The rapier has two pairs of wings and is a medium attack craft good for support and lone combat. Four cannons, and three missiles. It's not as elegant in design and tends to be boxy. But most pilots prefer the extra shielding and metal. The guns don't hurt either.<br/><br/>Raptor: Another medium craft a bit more modern in design to the older Rapier. It has just as much plating and shielding but carries only two missiles. It's more streamlined and takes it's name from the birds of prey. It has two pairs of wings and they can be moved to a wide attack position or a narrower dive position.<br/><br/>Heavy Craft<br/><br/>Vulcan: The oldest heavy craft it is still serviceable like all heavy craft it moves like a dead cow but anything short of a missile up the tale pipe, and it won't flinch. It has three pair of stationary wings, six guns and a whopping five missiles. It looks like an old tomcat on steroids, it has a bulky frame and four main boosters, two auxiliary.<br/><br/>Excalibur: The pride of the heavy class. The cutting edge of human fighter tech. Still slow but well armored it looks like a phoenix if they lived in space. Three pairs of wings that can be fully adjusted to coax any maneuverability out of the machine. It still has the same armaments. It's more streamlined due to it's newer age and looks similar to the Vulcan without all the bulkiness.<br/><br/>Avali Ships<br/><br/>Avali ships are rounded and less angular they tend to look like tear drops or ovals and the wings are curved up or down in delicate arks. They have a avian fragility about them but that's just a ruse.<br/><br/>Light Fighters<br/><br/>Twin Sun: A small interceptor ship that takes the teardrop look to heart. It has two cannons and only one missile but it can fly circles around most other ships. Even the human Stiletto. It has a short wingspan and they're cocked back and curved downward.<br/><br/>Shadowrunner: A craft with no actual wings. It is faster than the fast but only has laser cannons. Not really used in open combat but for scouting there is nothing better. It is rounded like the standard teardrop shape and only has boosters in the back.<br/><br/>Medium Fighters<br/><br/>Falling star: The most distinguishing characteristic of this fighter is the wave like wings. Going gently up and then down. It has four laser cannons mounted on the nose and carries two missiles.<br/><br/>Comet: Another wingless variation of Avali tech this is considerably faster, but not as maneuverable it makes up for it with one extra missile.<br/>It looks like a stockier version of the Shadowrunner.<br/><br/>Heavy Craft: The Avali only have one tending not to favor the idea but it's a whopper.<br/><br/>Nova: The Nova is as big as the Excalibur and has short, almost stubby upwardly curved wings. It carries a remarkable payload of six missiles and guns. But it's speed and maneuverability are found wanting.<br/><br/>BOMBERS<br/><br/>Human. Bombers are all medium craft relying on fighters to give support.<br/><br/>Kamikaze: Despite it's namesake it's not a suicide craft. It is reminiscent of the stealth bomber craft of the 21st century, a little more rounded. It carries five bombs. Two conventional, one proton, and a driller. (Drills into the hull of a ship and explodes.)<br/><br/>Harbinger: A bulkier model than the Kamikaze it has seven bombs Three conventional, Two protons, and two drillers. It looks much like the Kamikaze but has another pair of wings for better dive-bombing capabilities.<br/><br/>Avali<br/><br/>Avali bombers are all light craft caring no more than three bombs.<br/><br/>Darkstar; Following in that tear drop style this bomber is fast and backs a jab. three pairs of wings make it look like a dragonfly. It carries three drillers.<br/><br/>Banshee: If sound existed in space this one would scream. it carries a carpet proton bomb capable of destroying a ships shield grid. The down side is that it's minimally armored. Few pilots choose this dart of a ship.<br/>
