Description: The Peregrine is the primary, dedicated escort gunship of the Omega Protectorate. Unlike the Inimica, which is often used to engage heavy fortifications and capital ships, the Peregrine is largely deployed planet-side to escort M32s and M47s across the battlefield and to support infantry in advancing. It has a wide variety of options for armaments. Its anti-personnel repeating laser cannons allow it to shred enemy infantry, while its two heavy laser cannons allow it to freely engage light vehicles. One general utility composite beam cannon turret on the aft-section give it near total lateral coverage and dissuades would-be pursuers. Its continued use amongst Protectorate forces is a testament to its versatility and reliability.
