Wings of Dawn Tech Room Description

Anticipating the need for a fighter capable of escorting capital ships through the newly-discovered Starlance, the UEU designed the Ray-class fighter in NC0039 based on the concept of a linked-jump fighter. Carrying a 'half jump drive', a downscaled version of the capital ship jump systems, the Ray would be able to traverse Starlances when linked with a capital ship. The Ray was the first Terran build fighter that came equipped with an energy shield generator, which would allow it to resist the increasingly common energy-based weaponry. The Ray first went into limited mass production in NC0040 and had a production run of nine years, through which one thousand units were produced. The design was eventually retired in NC0051, and would be later succeeded by the Ray Mark II.
