The Predator Frigate is a fast attack ship designed to take down much bigger foes.
A massive Doomsday Torpedo in its hangar puts larger capital ships at risk: the bomb can tear a hole in hull to let boarding parties eradicate unsuspecting crew.
Like any good warship the interior is cramped, sacrificing comfort for weapons and shields. It has a real nice claustrophobic feel inside.
Reminiscent of a bird of prey, the Predator can sneak up on its target, obliterate its shields, and tear holes in armor before the victim knows it's too late to run.

- This ship is basically an homage to the Burning Amber by Tshara. Though my talents are far less developed, I appreciate inspiration. Cargo pods and anti-missile turrets are direct copies. Thanks Tshara!
- The chain drive is the work of alterintel. It works great! What a brilliant design, thanks!
- The idea for the wedge doors came from facc00. Thanks dude, looking forward to seeing you online!
