Tityus Fighter
(pronounced tight-US)
Designed with the needs of planetary militias and mercenaries in mind,
the Tityus patrol fighter excels in the atmosphere, and performs on par with
it's competition in the vacuum. Using a single-seat bubble cockpit that can
be configured for almost any physiology, the Tityus can be found in service
in almost every sector of the Empire.
It's high atmospheric amnueverability it due, in no small part, to a the
variable geometry wings. They can be canted forward to 15 degrees from
the centerline, and swept back just as far, under the control of the ship's
computer system. The two laser turrets are located at the tips of these
wings, were they enjoy nearly 200 degrees of fire, and can engage a
large number of ground forces in a very short amount of time. The Tityus
can also be fitted with pylons for carrying mission specific ordinance, along
with the nose mounted mini concussion missile launcher. If you are on the
ground, you do not like to see a Tityus coming towards you. Or away
from you for that matter.
