DESCRIPTION
One of the most advanced starfighter development programs House Mecetti Nationalized Industries ever attempted, the Tie/ha 'Jester' represents the pinnacle of Heavy Starfighter development. With it's assault lasers, the Jester starfighter can actually perform effective strafing runs on Capital Ships. It also has ample defense systems, excellent speed and acceptable maneuverability. Its top-rated hyperdrive gives it the ability to take on long-distance attack missions. The use-case of the starfighter involves performing assaults on hardened targets. It can open up with torpedoes at long range before using its heavy guns to devastate the sorts of targets that can usually shrug off fighter-based lasers.

The large size of the starfighter is its primary detriment. It presents a larger targeting silhouette to enemies, while taking up more space in a ship hangar than a typical starfighter.
