Description:
INFR1 Tech Room Description
The fastest ship ever built, the Ennead is essentially an afterburner with guns. Very poorly shielded, this refined interceptor is useless in most dogfights. Where she excels is the interception of bombers, as her incredible afterburner velocity is completely unmatched by regular propulsion systems.
Credits List
- Model by Venom
Notes
The Ennead's mesh is based on a cutscene image featured in the FreeSpace 2 credits section. [1]

Veteran Comments
Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.
As it can be easily deduced by looking at the Ennead's parameters, this fighter truly is a mere "afterburner with guns". Just like certain fighters like the Serapis or Manticore, the Ennead should not join prolonged battles because of its thin armor and relatively weak shields, so it should be used to intercept bombers, only, although its weapon compatibility somewhat ensures the possibility of carrying out moderate anti-subsystem strikes.
