==Description==
Maneuverable and well-protected, the '''''Sulla''''' medium [[OmniFighter]]'s balance of armor and weaponry allows it to operate in conjunction with heavier or smaller fighters, or to perform aggressive combat patrolling in support of ground units.<ref name=TRO3055U184-185/><ref name=TRO3055-152-153>''Technical Readout: 3055'', pp. 152–153: "Sulla Fighter Profile"</ref><ref name=TRO3055R136-137>''Technical Readout: 3055 Revised'', pp. 136–137: "Sulla OmniFighter Profile"</ref>

Maneuverable and well-protected, the '''''Sulla''''' medium [[OmniFighter]]'s balance of armor and weaponry allows it to operate in conjunction with heavier or smaller fighters, or aggressive combat air patrolling in support of ground units.
  
The use of an [[XL engine]] and [[Composition G]] [[ferro-aluminum]] armor provides the fighter with a notable 14.5 tons of available [[pod space]]. Because of the 13 [[double heat sink]]s mounted on its base chassis and the superior staying power of its large five ton fuel load, the ''Sulla''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s patrol and sustained thrust abilities are rarely matched.<ref name=TRO3055U184-185/><ref name=TRO3055-152-153/><ref name=TRO3055R136-137/>

==Weapons and Equipment==
+
==Armament==
The primary ''Sulla'' configuration is a multirole variant. Its main weapon, a nose-mounted [[ER PPC]], is bolstered by an [[ER large laser]] mounted under each wing and an [[ER small laser]] fitted in the stern to deter pursuit.<ref name=TRO3055U184-185/><ref name=TRO3055-152-153/><ref name=TRO3055R136-137/>

The primary ''Sulla'' configuration is a multi-role variant, its main weapon is a nose mounted [[ER PPC]], bolstered by an [[Large Pulse Laser]] mounted under each wing, with a [[ER Small Laser]] fitted in the stern to deter pursuit.
  
 
==Alternate Configurations==
 
==Alternate Configurations==
*; Alternate Configuration A : The A configuration mounts both an ER large laser and [[ER medium laser]] in the nose, providing a limited strafing ability, supported by an [[Artemis IV FCS]]–enhanced [[LRM-10]] launcher in each wing, giving the ''Sulla'' a stand-off capability unrivaled in its class, even if the launchers only have a ton of reloads each. An ER small laser mounted in the rear of the craft provides minimal defense. BV (1.0) = 1,917;<ref name=CO109/><ref name=TRO3055U184-185/><ref>''AeroTech 2 Record Sheets'', p. 73</ref> BV (2.0) = 1,939<ref name=MUL188/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrades Unabridged'', p. 321</ref>
+
* Alt Config A - The A variant mounts both ER Large Laser and [[ER Medium Laser]] in the nose providing a limited strafing ability, supported by an [[Artemis IV FCS]] enhanced [[LRM-10]] in each wing, providing the ''Sulla'' a standoff capability unrivaled in its class even if both launchers only have a ton of reloads each. An extended range small laser mounted at the rear of the craft provides minimal defense.BV (1.0) = 1,917, BV (2.0) = 1,939
 
+
* Alt Config B - Intended as missile boat, the B variant follows the same theme as the A, using Artemis enhanced [[LRM-20]]s, one per wing. The only other weapon is a defensively mounted extended range small laser aft, forcing the ''Sulla'' B to withdraw when its mere twelve reloads for its missile launchers are expended. BV (1.0) = 1,811, BV (2.0) = 1,801
*; Alternate Configuration B : Intended as a missile boat, the B configuration follows the same theme as the A configuration, using Artemis IV–enhanced [[LRM-20]]s, one per wing. The only other weapon is a defensively mounted ER small laser in the aft, forcing the ''Sulla'' B to withdraw when its mere 12 reloads for the launchers are expended. BV (1.0) = 1,811;<ref name=CO109/><ref name=TRO3055U184-185/><ref>''AeroTech 2 Record Sheets'', p. 74</ref> BV (2.0) = 1,801<ref name=MUL188/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrades Unabridged'', p. 322</ref>
+
* Alt Config C - Ideal for long-range patrol or pursuit missions, the C variant mounts an extended range PPC in each wing and a [[Medium Pulse Laser]] in the nose, with a ER small laser fixed aft. BV (1.0) = 2,247, BV (2.0) = 2,547
 
+
* Alt Config D - A short-range combatant, the ''Sulla'' D mounts two [[Streak SRM-6]] launchers supported by a Medium Pulse Laser in its nose, with a further two medium pulsed lasers split between each wing. Two tons of missile reloads are more than enough for the highly efficient Streak launchers, while one of the new [[Heavy Small Laser]]s is mounted aft. BV (1.0) = 2,247, BV (2.0) = 1,821
*; Alternate Configuration C : Ideal for long-range patrol or pursuit missions, the C configuration mounts an ER PPC in each wing and a [[medium pulse laser]] in the nose, with an ER small laser fixed in the aft. BV (1.0) = 2,247;<ref name=CO109/><ref name=TRO3055U184-185/><ref>''AeroTech 2 Record Sheets'', p. 75</ref> BV (2.0) = 2,547<ref name=MUL188/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrades Unabridged'', p. 323</ref>
 
 
 
*; Alternate Configuration D : A short-range combatant, the ''Sulla'' D mounts two [[Streak SRM-6]] launchers supported by a medium pulse laser in its nose, with two more medium pulse lasers split between the wings. Two tons of missile reloads are more than enough for the highly efficient Streak launchers, while one [[heavy small laser]] is mounted in the aft. BV (1.0) = 1,793;<ref name=TRO3055U184-185/> BV (2.0) = 1,821<ref name=MUL188/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrades Unabridged'', p. 324</ref>
 
 
 
*; Alternate Configuration E : Introduced during the [[Jihad]], the ''Sulla'' E carries three [[plasma cannon]]s into combat. With one in each wing and the nose, the ''Sulla'' can quickly overwhelm an enemy's heat sinks and force a shutdown. The fighter mounts a single ER small laser to cover its aft arc. More importantly, all the weapons are tied into an advanced [[targeting computer]] to improve accuracy. BV (2.0) = 2,066<ref>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrades Unabridged'', p. 325</ref>
 
 
 
*; Alternate Configuration F : This [[Dark Age]] configuration carries a [[Watchdog CEWS]] and two [[improved heavy large laser]]s. BV (2.0) = 1,871<ref>''Record Sheets: 3145 New Tech, New Upgrades'', p. 206</ref>
 
  
 
==Notes==
 
==Notes==
* The original ''TRO:3055'' version was constructed via [[fractional accounting]], featuring 14.75 tons of pod space and mounted a single [[machine gun]] with half a ton of ammunition in the aft in its prime, A, B, and C configurations in place of the [[small laser]] used in legal variants.
