The distinguishing factors of the Centurion series are high speed and good maneuverability, but a relatively limited number of weapons configuration ports, due to its original design as do several other factionsa peacetime trainer. Some adaptations, most notably the Border Guardian developed for the [[Itani]] military and the 'Rev C' version made by [[Orion Heavy Manufacturing]] (found in [[Union of Independent Territories|UIT]] and grey space) have proven very effective in modern combat usage.
