The traditional model for starfighter bombers is a heavily
armed and armored craft that can wade through the fields of fire of
target craft and deliver their payloads. However, with the power
and accuracy of modern anti-starfighter weapons, and the speed and
accuracy of modern interceptors, ships of that type are having a
harder and harder time getting through the covering fire.
The Septimus is Wrathtech's attempt to redefine the model. As
sleek as a racing swoop, the Septimus's smooth lines and high
powered thrusters enable it to outrun and dodge even dedicated
interceptors. While not as sturdy as some of the heavier bombers,
the Septimus has a relatively rugged design, and is relatively easy
to maintain, despite it's lack of heavy armor.
