Actually it is fairly capable. If you pilot one a skilled pilot can down about 2 or 3 fighters before going down. Which it will do quickly because of a lack of afterburners and countermeasures. However, that's provided you're at least using Subachs. If not then it's pointless to try this out. Training Lasers are useless, period.

Cannon fodder at its finest. It does its job of being a target and blowing up very well, but not much else.
  
  
IMO it is completely useless. I've tried it with 36 of them, and they went down pretty quick in the presence of three Perseus fighters.

The GTDr Amazon Model IV, better known as the GTDr Amazon, and its larger brother, the GTDr Amazon Advanced, are unmanned spacecraft used mainly for training purposes by the GTA. They were later dropped from use and replaced by virtual counterparts.

Description:

The GTDr Amazon


FS1 Tech Room Description

The Amazon is a simple drone, used for basic combat training. They are unmanned, and carry only the weakest of weaponry.

FS2 Tech Room Description

The GTDr Amazon Model IV unmanned combat drone was once used for live basic combat training. They weren't tough, they weren't smart, and they weren't well armored. But they blew up very nicely. These drones are no longer manufactured, but their virtual counterparts are used in the Training Simulator Module (TSM) series. The Model IV is every fighter pilot's first TSM opponent, the first mobile foe he faces during simulator courses. If you can't handle an Amazon during training, it's time to reconsider your choice of careers.

The GTDr Amazon's infamous "SHOOT ME" stamp


Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.


Cannon fodder, used in training, not much more to say. Armed with the Training Laser, these puppies are defenseless. It doesn't matter what gun you have, take these things out of their misery.


It says "SHOOT ME" on the underside. Get to it, pilot.


Cannon fodder at its finest. It does its job of being a target and blowing up very well, but not much else.


A slowish, clumsy, bulky flying bullseye that is kind of sort of armed. Feel free to obey the sign on the bottom, it can't hurt you (much).


If you get killed by this, uninstall FreeSpace and/or FreeSpace2, and never look at the game again. You are a disgrace to us all.
