	''The Lapith pretty much handles as advertised. It has faster burners than the [[Perseus]], better turn rate than an [[Artemis]], but falls short in term of survivability: it has a huge target profile, for a hull and shields similar to the much smaller [[GTB Rhea\|Rhea]]. Much like the [[Zeus]], don't expect this ship to handle its own for long in a knife fight against Tev crafts. Which matches its intended role, since it's supposed to jump in while enemy fighters are busy, drop warheads, and bug out. Don't hesitate to abuse countermeasures, and the support ship to repair your thin hull in prolonged fights. Triple [[Redeemer]] gives it a hell of a punch (the [[Durga]] carries 4), its secondary capacity is just smaller than that of the [[Artemis]] (140 compared to Artemis' 160), and it can carry all the UEF bombs, although not in all of its banks. It is in my opinion superior to its Tev competitors [[GTB Rhea\|Rhea]] and [[Artemis]], and fills the much needed light bomber gap in the UEF tech tree. But if you're going in for a long fight with many hostile fighters involved and insufficient cover, take an [[Uriel]] or an [[UEF Izra'il\|Izra'il]] instead if available, as they can also carry some bombs and are definitely more survivable.''

		+	When flying against it as a Tev pilot, the Lapith is an absolute glass cannon. It's heavily armed and fast, but just doesn't have the durability of the Durga. In [[Behold a White Horse]], they go down quickly to Kayser fire, but if you don't move fast, they'll torch your capital ships.

 ===Blue Planet: War in Heaven Tech Description===
 The UEB Lapith was introduced in the later stages of the civil war in Sol in response to increasing casualties among [[UEB Durga|Durga]] and [[UEB Vajradhara|Vajradhara]] squadrons. The [[GTVA]]'s response to a [[UEF]] bomber deployment was to send in [[Trebuchet]]-armed hunter-killers to saturate the battlespace with bomber-killing ordnance. This tactic was so effective that it would soon nullify any remaining anti-capital ship advantage the UEF possessed. The Lapith is a fast [[Jackhammer]] and [[Sledgehammer]] delivery platform designed to jump in, deliver her payload and exfiltrate to safety in the minimum amount of time. The improved profile and speed of what is essentially an oversized fighter has increased the survival rates of UEF bomber pilots fourfold since deployment.
