FT-9 Lance

The FT-9 Lance is a redesign/throwback to the FT-6 Pike, and the first in the FT-Series to be put into production since the fall of the Old Galactic Republic over one thousand years ago. It is also the first of the FT-Series to be designed and built by Starlight Star Drives.

The FT-9 is comparable to the older FT-6 in function and capabilities when compared to current day starfighters. Equipped with two secondary weapon systems, the pilot can switch from ship-to-ship Cluster Missiles to Anti-Capital/Facility Torpedoes mid-battle. Couple this with the primary Heavy Laser Cannons, Strong defenses, speed and maneuverability expected from a fighter of this size, the FT-9 Lance is ready for anything.

Due to advances in Starfighter Technologies since the FT-6, the FT-9 only needs one pilot for operation thanks to smarter on-board computer systems and simplified flight controls, which have been remodeled after the Z-95-SAF2 Headhunter, to allow for easy cross training for pilots who flew a Z-95 or even an X-wing over their career.

While this starfighter is on the open market there is already a wait time on orders as Providence has made a large order of these fighter upon their unavailing.

Cluster Missile Launcher
Mounted on the wings, these 8-tube launchers fires 4 to 8 high speed/maneuverable projectiles at the target. Each missile simply cause kinetic damage when they striking the target. The weapon system has a short range but a very short lock on time. The weapon system is best used against other Starfighters or other similar small craft.
