The GVF Serapis


Description:

FS2 Tech Room Description

Fast and highly maneuverable, the GVF Serapis is primarily used as a bomber interceptor. Its thin armor and weak shields give it a low survival rate in dogfights against more heavily armored fighters. Despite having only two primary and secondary weapon banks, the Serapis has been retrofitted to accommodate almost any loadout in the GTVA arsenal. Veteran Vasudan pilots love the Serapis for its agility and loadout options. Some Terran pilots who've been privileged enough to fly it claim to prefer it to any Terran fighter.

Veteran Comments

The Serapis is classed as a space superiority fighter, but don't let that fool you. This is in fact a civilian ultralight for airshows. While that sounds harsh, it is unfortunately rather true. A joy to simply fly thanks to its speed and manuverablity, the Serapis is also disturbingly fragile, at least as much so as the FS1-era Valkyrie if not more so. The Serapis has an extremely high attrition rate in combat.
