Out of curiosity I decided to check out the stats on Dirty Jane’s fighting
ships. Looks like the main gun is a Mk4 FAP cannon that can switch from pulse to
steady beam. It can fire a devastating massed charge but with a 15 minute cycle
rate between discharges. It also has a secondary cannon which can fire a 5,6,or
7 inch armor piercing round, 6 inch being the most common.
The only drawback I see to this fighter is atmospheric re-entry, where the pilot
can get pretty banged up unless he uses a specially designed helmet. In that
case, he won’t feel a thing.
A side entry mentions the first sight at the Battle of Delos 9. Surviving
ground pounders recalled the menacing screams of FAP-FAP-FAP overhead, causing
them to go limp with fear.
For Great Justice!
