Description: This is basically an advanced stealth drone bomber. Like its Hellhound brother, this drone is remotely controlled, but can operate by itself when needed. IT also contains some of the same sophisticated technologies used on the Stellar Enterprises EagleEye drone.

The bombers are equipt with ion shutters that can be engaged and help to cover the bomber from detections. While these are engaged, however, the bombers speed is limited. The is also a booster attached to the engine to allow the bomber to conduct a quick attack run or to get out of the engagment zone quicker. These bombers also contain a hyperspace and can store 15 different jump points.

The airframe is made from Carbon Matrix just like the Hellhound, but is thicker and stronger. This contains within it 4 internal weapons bays, which help the bomber be more stealthy. There are 2 large bays and 2 smaller ones, all of which launch there weapons out of the bays before letting them ignite. The weapons are all contained within rotary assemblies with ejects each weapon out of the bombers airframe before rotating to bring the next weapon into place.

These are very capable bombers that are able to cause mass damage to capital ships even in small numbers.
