The Imperial Raptor

    The Imperial Raptor version 1.1

    When the old alliances still held, the Galactic Imperium used the Raptor as its "default" fighter for keeping the peace. It was designed as a no-frills, simply utilitarian craft. Fast, maneuverable, and with dual laser cannons it gets the job done. An entire fleet comprised of these vessels stands to be more than a mere nuisance.

    The Imperial Raptor features two dual laser cannons and one beam weapon. It does not have a jump drive, but it does have a transporter. It has mild magnetic repulsor shielding. There are also two AMS turrets on each wing.

      This update improves the thrust to mass ratio from 1:1 to 1.2:1, which is minor. Thruster...

    I like the design quite a bit but I have a couple suggestions. Ships look really drab if they're all grey so I'd either add more red or replace some sections with dark grey for a bit of contrast. I also think the AMS turrets look wierd where they are. I would put them closer to the center in the area right in front of the engines and have one on top and one on the underside of the ship on either side. I think they'd look better here and it'd also give you better coverage if there's a missile comming at you from below.

    I have been thinking about doing something similar. I plan on adding some of your suggestions in the future.
    As awesome as it is, I can't help but want to use it to clothesline everything in my path. XD

    It harkens back to the good 'ole days of epic '80s and '90 space battles.
    Good lore and fun build ;)
