Veteran Comments
Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.
Similar in weaponry to the GTF Myrmidon. Even carries the Helios for reasons unknown.
The Shu is, however, more manuverable than the Myrmidon, and I personally find the Shu's five-gun setup simpler to handle then the Myrmidon's six-gun one, though it appears rather strange at first. A worthy replacement for the aged GVF Thoth as the Vasudan's dedicated space-superiority craft in addition to being a serious challenge to the GTF Perseus for the GTVA's best all-arounder.
