Notes
-----				
The fighters carry 3 S/FI HEPlaR missiles each--- usually armed with a
500kt det-laser warhead.  

Use the TL13 8 ton fighters posted previously.

This ship while Wedge SL, is actually more of a squashed cone, tapering
slightly to the rear, with short "wings" for fuel skimming operations.
Fuel purification takes 48 hours for the total jump fuel (43.75kl/hr).

The cargo area is adjacent to all missile turrets and typically holds 10
spare missiles.

This design trades maneuver for its fighters.  Another common version
has 4 instead of 3 missile turrets, and no laser.  Add a Missile Turret,
and remove the LT, nothing else changes.

TL14 700/186.6MJ Laser Turret (Zhodani standard, 4 tons)
 
This turret shares an HPG for a non-grav focused xray laser, and a smaller 
grav focused tunable laser for atmospheric use.  Both may be fired at the same 
target as well, since the xray laser may only fire at a ROF of 100, and the 
HPG does 800.  Power quoted above is for 10 shots from either laser array.
The xray laser is std at ROF100, the tunable is beefed to ROF800.  They
may both be fired at once for the same power input as long as the total
ROF isn't above 800.

This turret has half a ton of unused volume.  There has been a proposal to the 
Consulate Navy to remove the crew station and laser commo, then use the extra 
volume to add a dedicated MFD.
