RF-42 Centaur tactical fighters
The Centaur is the premiere space superiority fighter
in the Local Cluster. Designed to conduct high speed, fire-and-forget
combat maneuvers, it is unmatched in its ability to engage
multiple targets at short and medium distances. The primary
mission of the Centaur is to provide combat patrol
support for Heavy Cruiser and Atmospheric
Attack Craft Carriers. It also flies tactical escort
for strike fighters and conducts Suppression of Enemy Defense
(SED) operations during interplanetary combat. These fighters
are equipped with dual AP cannons and 2 ELS tubes which
fire up to 6 OM-5 offensive and defensive kinetic kill missiles.
The RF-42 can be piloted either from the cockpit or remotely
from a Flight Operations Center.
