STRENGTHS

• Flying Fortress: Inspired by the Y-wings of old, Si Tech threw everything it could into keeping the bomber alive. Armed to the teeth with top of the line blaster cannons, and heavy plating, taking out the Thunderstorm is quite the task.
• Aim Assist: The turrets within the Thunderstorm are controlled via the secondary gunner, linked up with the astromech's systems, allowing for the secondary gunner to use his computer system to line up shots with multiple guns, rather than taking control of each individually.
• Hurricane: The Thunderstorm is designed with a lot of bombs. What loadout you want is up to you. Either way, it's gonna hit pretty hard.

WEAKNESSES

• Storm Warning: The Thunderstorm isn't designed for dogfighting. It's low speed and maneuverability is designed to be offset by high firepower, not swift movements.
• Droid Reliant: Many of the higher level systems are reliant on the astromech to run. While the ship can still function without one, functions such as the turret controls, Sensor Array, and Missile Deactivation will be less effective without droid assistance.
• Low and Slow: The Thunderstorm is designed with small squadron counts. This can hamper effectiveness.

DESCRIPTION
The redesign of a ship first designed by Si Tech as a dip of their toes into starship design, the Thunderstorm II comes with all the accompaniments that Si Tech has to offer after a year in the business, allowing the GADF access to the newest and best equipment now that it has the knowledge of how starships work.
