Description: In order to get production up and running, Alyesa Organa designed a basic interceptor for the Royal House of Alderaan. This interceptor was designed to match most of it's class without going too much into elegance. It was designed to be without warheads in the armament in order to boost speed and maneuverability. The costs of production were also lowered by cutting out advanced systems as Alderaan Royal Engineers was just starting to get the Shipyard back online and required something to go off of. Alyesa utilized the platform of the Sprite in order to start development on a standard Starfighter and Bomber element for the Royal House of Alderaan.
