| | | | |
| − | Originally an unreliable [[Aerospace Fighter]] developed in the wake of the [[Amaris Civil War]], the ''Corsair'' has been improved over time to be a reliable and safe craft. Most of the [[Star League]] era production facilities were located in [[House Davion]] controlled space, and is seen mostly in [[Federated Suns]] units, although both [[House Marik]] and [[House Kurita]] fly variants.

For coverage to the stern, the remaining two Exostar [[Small Laser]]s are mounted to the rear to discourage attack from there.
