Code: AeroTech 2 Vessel Technical Readout VALIDATED
Class/Model/Name: Viper MkVIII Tech: Inner Sphere / 3067 Vessel Type: Aerospace Fighter Rules: Level 1, Standard design Rules Set: AeroTech2
Mass: 75 tons Frame: Colbolt Angel Length: 25 meters Power Plant: Mercury 300 Fusion Safe Thrust: 6 Maximum Thrust: 9 Armor Type: Apollo Medium Standard Armament: 1 Imperator Zeta-a Autocannon/20 1 Zeus LRM 5 1 Vulcan Fire 2 SRM 2 2 Ceres Arms Medium Laser 1 ChisComp 32 Small Laser Manufacturer: Actaeon Aerospace Consortium Location: Neptune Orbital Yard Sigma Communications System: Achernar Electronics HICK-4 Targeting & Tracking System: Poeas Hard Lock TTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ==Overview:== Built using surplus materials and based on an older prototype, the Viper MkVIII has become a major selling unit for Actaeon Aerospace Consortium and their orbital factory and yards in orbit around Neptune. The company knows that it has lived on the graces of ComStar and the Word of Blake since the fall of the Star League and the collapse of the Terran Hegemony. With this in mind they have sold to both sides as well as those who are okayed by the ruling power block of the Sol System.
The Viper MkVIII has an impressive weapons compliment and one that allows it to engage targets of different types as well as being able to preform different roles.
==Capabilities:== Armed with an Imperator Zeta-a Autocannon/20, this gives the craft a hard punch to just about any target existing. Not much can handle a blast from the Imperator Zeta and live to talk about it. Add in a Zeus Long Range Class 5 missile pack and you have the ability to keep most enemy fighters and other craft at range or weary of what else the fighter might be carrying. For close in work the trio of Vulcan Fire 2 short range missiles and a dual Ceres Arms Medium Laser, one in each wing allow the MkVIII to get in and give as good as it can get. The rounding out of the trio is the ChisComp 32 Small Laser mounted in the aft, is a nice surprise when it opens fire on engaging enemy units.
==Variants:== There are three variants in testing, one drops the Imperator Zeta-a and adds fuel and secondary energy weapons. Another is working on using a combo of light Gauss Rifles in place of the Imperator Zeta-a and Zeus weapon systems. And the third is more of interceptor variant replacing the weapons for those more akin to dog-fighting.

Is this a reference to Battlestar Galactica?

I might rename the TTS to "Capricorn-12 DIrection RAnge DIStance" - - - - - If you decide to do any BSG-inspired campaigns, then you can give it some situational Design Quirks to add some spice:
Against Inner Sphere units, it receives: - Improved Sensors - Improved Communications - Improved Targeting (Long Range) - Multi-Trac - Battle Computer (+2 Initiative Bonus) - Combat Computer (-4 Heat Generated per turn) - Improved Missile Guidance: If not performing Indirect Fire, then the SRMs will function as their Streak Counterparts, along with a -2 To-Hit Modifier. LRMs will function as a hybrid of Swarm-i LRMs (area of effect without any friendly fire), Semi-Guided LRMs (which can be guided by friendly TAG systems), Mortars (can't be hit by AMS) and standard munitions. Finally, all missiles can be fired at targets directly adjacent to the fighter's forward firing arc, can't be evaded (space physics and no squishy pilots), and provide a -2 penalty against Intercept attempts by AMS systems.
Against [s]Cylon[/s] Clan units, it receives: - Poor Targeting (All Ranges) - Sensor Gosts - Haunted: Every turn, the pilot must make a successful Piloting Check at a +3 Target Modifier, or the fighter will perform a random action outside of their control. If the pilot loses consciousness, then the fighter falls completely under enemy control and is treated as if it had a Drone Cockpit. - Hard-to-Pilot - Difficult Ejection - Non-functional Component: Communications - Ammunition Feed Problem: Missiles
