STRENGTHS
- Swarm Tactics: Each squadron of the Vesk-class Droid Starfighter sums up to a total of twenty-four individual fighters, and in most situations this allows the Vesk-class to overwhelm the enemy with superior numbers and firepower, quickly seizing victory before the enemy has a chance to respond.
- Impressive Pilots: Running on the RMD-9F Anhur Droid Brain, the Vesk-class is nothing short of incredible at starfighter combat; with a logic matrix and processor that rivals those of its organic pilot counterparts, Vesk-class can be relied on to constantly come up with new and creative combat maneuvers and strategies, using those to compound onto the huge amount of stored flight data and pre-programmed tactics. This means that whether it's with its squadron or alone, the Vesk-class is an intimidating fighter to fight against.
- Defenses: Despite its high offensive rating, the Vesk-class has does not have much in terms of defenses; with no shields to speak of, the Vesk-class is a space-worthy tin can. This means that, when overwhelmed by enemy fighters, point-defense, or flak fire, the Vesk-class is not able to take a large number of hits. As such, the droid starfighter makes a very poor defensive screen, and in certain cases, a commander must use wise tactics to prevent his fighter force from being annihilated.
- Loss of Signal: Being its mothership in a sense, essentially all of the Vesk-class's communications and orders are received and transmitted through the Robber's Crown. In the event that the communications of the Robber's Crown are tampered with or otherwise disabled, the Vesk-class will complete its immediate objective but then essentially power off due to the lack of directive, rendering the starfighters essentially useless.
Created to complement the ship commissioned by the bounty hunter known as Rocho, the Vesk-class Droid Starfighter was built in tandem with the Robber's Crown, designed to be the ship's primary offensive technology in battle. A droid starfighter, the Vesk-class is designed around the common 'swarm and destroy tactic;' each squadron contains twenty-four individual fighters, each with their own heavy armament of laser cannons and proton torpedos. In addition to that, the Vesk-class features the RMD-9F Anhur Droid Brain, making it nothing short of incredible at starfighter combat -- a logic matrix and heuristic processor allow the Vesk-class to constantly come up with new and creative combat maneuvers and strategies, using them in tandem with a large archive of flight data and pre-programmed tactics. Whether it's by itself or surrounded by others like it, the Vesk-class is nothing less than an intimidating fighter to come up against.
