The Shrike’s gun mounts are poorly placed and their set convergence simply isn’t good enough to let you reliably sustain fire on an enemy ship.}} | ||

Description:
TVWP Tech Room Description
The Shrike is the most highly specialized fighter in the fleet. It excels at interception but is ill suited to other tasks. Although it is fast and inexpensive, it has less armor than most fighters and can only carry a small selection of weaponry. With the development of newer, more general-purpose fighters such as the Mustang Alpha, many Terran factions are phasing the Shrike out. They are quite popular with pirates, however, and are often used in swarm situations to distract escorts while a capture craft makes off with valuable cargo.
