Strengths:
Speed and Maneuverability: The Shark II moves through the water at high rates of speed, and can maneuver easily to avoid attacks or to attack targets.
Squadron Counts For Everything: Due to the small size of the ship, they can be grouped into a high squadron count; making them a strong cohesive fighting force.
Weaknesses:
Restricted To Water: The underwater attack vehicle is restricted to aquatic environments. It cannot be used anywhere else.
Average Pew-Pew: Despite the laser mounted cannons, they do not possess the desired hitting power required to destroy targets outright. They must utilize concentration tactics or repeated attacks to break through shields or target's material construction.
Shield?: They come equipped with a basic deflector shield generator, which is powerful enough to sustain a few hits.
DESCRIPTION
The Shark II-class by Venjuta Industries is based off the original design of the Shark Underwater Fighter once employed by the Imperial Army. The design differs from the original, but the idea of this type was credited to it's older brother.
The function of this vehicle is to give the Scythica Empire an aquatic fighter to defend it's assets from opposing forces. The Shark II attack in swarms usually working in tandem to destroy enemy targets; which is more favorable than attacking individually since it's cannons lack the strong hitting power found on most vehicles. The lack of hitting power was approved in favor of creating the vehicle to possess a higher rate of speed and maneuverability.
The Shark II is limited to only aquatic environments (underwater) and lacks the ability to be utilized in any other capacity. The small attacking vehicle is strongly compacted, allowing for only one pilot and no room to move. Those that pilot these have dubbed it "The Watery Grave" due in part there is no ejection function and it doesn't take much effort to destroy them.
