STRENGTHS

• Adaptable Engagement: Its ability to conduct efficient strafing runs against ground targets and cause significant damage to larger starships underscores its multifaceted combat applications.
• Defensive Countermeasures: Equipped with flares and chaff launchers, it can effectively counteract missile threats, enhancing its survivability.
• Structural Resilience: Incorporating a composite armor layer around vital systems bolsters the bomber's defensive integrity.
• Atmospheric Versatility: The bomber's design facilitates operations in diverse atmospheric conditions, making it a reliable asset in varied environments.
• Rapid Deployment: The starfighter's high-speed capability ensures quick deployment to combat zones, minimizing the reaction time for adversaries.
• Specialized Offensive Role: The D-5 is tailored for specific offensive operations, making it a technical asset for strategic strikes and rapid assault missions.
• Compact Design: The relatively small dimensions of the bomber allow for a smaller target profile, reducing its visibility and chance of being hit.

WEAKNESSES

• Reduced Squadron Size: With only four bombers in a squadron, there's an increased reliance on individual performance and vulnerability to overwhelming enemy forces.
• Maneuverability Constraints: with low maneuverability, there is potential challenges in evasive actions and complex navigational maneuvers.
• Vulnerability in Prolonged Combat: The bomber's emphasis on speed and offense might render it susceptible during prolonged engagements, where defense and sustainability become paramount.
• Engine Exposure: The emphasis on increased speed could expose the engines to higher wear and thermal stress levels, requiring intensive maintenance and monitoring.
• Targeting Limitations: Forward-facing weapon systems require the starfighter to align with targets directly, which can be challenging under heavy enemy fire or complex combat scenarios.
• Escort Reliant: with such a low squad count and average defences, the Bomber requires fighter escort to get to its target in one piece.

DESCRIPTION
The D-5 Model, developed by the Lilaste Order, is a swift and efficient bomber designed for rapid and powerful strikes. The need for speed prompted its creation, as many bombers were being intercepted and destroyed before reaching their destinations. Equipped with enhanced thrusting mechanisms, the D-5 boasts quick deployment and retreat, ensuring it hits targets fast and exits combat zones swiftly. The D-5's small squadron size and forward-facing weapons system emphasize its role in rapid, precision strikes, often requiring fighter escorts for optimal performance in combat scenarios. Its design allows operations in diverse atmospheric conditions, showcasing its adaptability. while also having a Hyperdrive of its own
