Pablito Reynolds was the supervising Technician of the SL-17X Shilone project in 3075.[1]
History[edit]
He was the main force behind the project and was able to reconfigure the nose assembly to mount the massive Improved Heavy Gauss Rifle. He had to reduce several weapons but he was able to squeeze a nose-mounted large laser back in beneath the cannon, and also upgraded the wing-mounted lasers to Clan versions. In order to do this changes, Reynolds had to remove all the armor first, and decided to replace it in the final version with Ferro-Aluminum Armor.
After the first flight test showed that the trim of the fighter was off, with the pilot nearly crashing soon after takeoff, Pablito made some minor adjustments and the second flight proceeded much more smoothly.[1]
