WEAKNESSES

• Limited Speed - The additional weight due to enhanced armor significantly reduces the Basilisk G-9's speed, potentially making evasion and rapid maneuvering challenging in intense combat scenarios.
• Weapon Power Draw - The extensive power draw of the LO-23C limits the operation of only one group of weapons at a time, necessitating a brief delay when switching between weapon groups, which could be critical in fast-paced battles.
• Limited Maneuverability - The starfighter's low maneuverability rating makes it less agile in combat, making it a potential target for more nimble enemy craft.
• Squadron Size - With a low squadron count of 8, the Basilisk G-9 may face challenges when confronting enemy squadrons of larger numbers, relying heavily on the individual combat prowess of each starfighter pilot.
• Weapon Switch Delay: The 1-second delay between switching weapon groups might seem minimal, but in the heat of battle, this can be the difference between victory and defeat.

DESCRIPTION
The G-8 starfighter is known for its reliability, but feedback from pilots highlighted a need for enhanced firepower, specifically, the addition of a missile launcher. In response, the Basilisk G-9 was developed. This upgraded model combines the trusted features of the G-8 with improved weaponry to meet the specific needs of pilots, ensuring they're equipped for a broader range of combat scenarios.
