Fighter Tender · Tier 7
Vespiary
A fighter tender a size above the Colossus: deep hangar decks, launch bays down both flanks and sixteen turrets to cover them. It keeps more fighters in the air than anything short of a Behemoth, and it is slow, broad and impossible to hide.
Overview
Fleet tender: 36 strike fighters, 18 out at once, and sixteen turrets, +15% turret damage
Slots and bonuses
16 high (8 L turret, 8 M turret) · 8 mid · 7 low.
- Turret L 8Turret mount · large. Turns on its own to track a target anywhere above its deck, so it keeps firing while you orbit or fly past. Takes size L: energy guns, mass drivers, missile launchers, point defense, salvagers, Seal Breakers, Splice Rigs. Smaller energy guns and mass drivers and missile launchers and point defense and salvagers and Seal Breakers and Splice Rigs fit too. A smaller weapon keeps its own size and stats: no bonus from the larger mount.
- Turret M 8Turret mount · medium. Turns on its own to track a target anywhere above its deck, so it keeps firing while you orbit or fly past. Takes size M: energy guns, mass drivers, missile launchers, point defense, salvagers, Seal Breakers, Splice Rigs, barrier projectors, nanite projectors. Sizes must match exactly (M), except energy guns and mass drivers and missile launchers and point defense and salvagers and Seal Breakers and Splice Rigs: a smaller one fits too. A smaller weapon keeps its own size and stats: no bonus from the larger mount.
- Mid slots 8Mid slot · shields and electronics. No mount restrictions: takes any mid-slot module. Barrier regenerators, amplifiers and weaves, thrusters, point defense, jammers, scanners, doctrine arrays, the shroud and guidance rigs. Only this class of hull can fit: Lightfold Cloak, Heavy Drive Tether, Drive Anchor.
- Low slots 7Low slot · armor and engineering. No mount restrictions: takes any low-slot module. Platings, nanite repair arrays, bracing, cell banks, hold extensions, augers and launcher rigs. One armor plating per hull.
