Riever
Contents
Description
A primary unit within Marik aerospace forces, the Riever makes up for it's low manueverability and thrust and it's somewhat lacking weapons systems with its capability at taking a punch and staying in the fight until the job is done. This post-Star League design also brings to the table easy maintenance and repair routines, due to the need for simplicity, even as early as the first decade of the 29th, century. The primary mission of the Riever remains that of anti-enemy fighter formations and DropShips (rather than ground support).
Armament
The Riever's primary weapon is an aerospace-modified Imperator Zeta-a Class-20 autocannon, supplied with a meager 10 rounds. The four Beta Short-Range Missile 6-racks are intended for anti-ASF operations; capable of destroying light fighters easily, they can also do significant damage to medium and (fellow) heavy fighters. The Gamma Long-Range Missile 10-Rack was a late addition to the Riever series.
