Description:
The Rhino-Class Bomber/Strike Fighter by Silk Holdings is a line that Coren had worked on brokering with Silk Holdings for use by the Silver Sanctum Coalition The Rhino Class is a strike fighter and bomber that can be modified for the types of missions it will be providing. Overall, the Rhino is a tough fighter that is slower and heavier than its contemporaries. All Rhinos carry a rapid-firing and heavy hitting pair of laser cannons designed to deplete shields and armor of an opponent quickly and effectively.
The Rhino Class is built like a tank with wings. She can take a beating and it has been known that even in atmospheric deployments, they have been able to return to base on one wing and engine. Pilots swear by their ships and wear them like a badge of armor. They get very connected to their ships and are known to not erase their internal astromechs, which cause the systems to act out eventually.
There exists two variants currently, the Rhino-A and the Rhino-S, bother are designed in a Strike-and-Support role. The Rhino-A is the Missile Varient, air-to-air focused. She carries the standard blaster cannons that useful against shields and armoring, and is deployed primarily in space operations to defeate capital ships and starships. The Rhino-S is the Air-to-Surface variant and is released in atmosphere in support of military movements. The Rhino-S is your standard tank-buster. Armed with bomb chutes, the Rhino-S launches modified space bombs that will burst towards their target and explode.
