Centurion

The Centurion Light Fighter Ship Class

Template:Ships:centurion.jpg\\ The Centurion ship class is the first decent fighter you can get. The basic Centurion sports one small port, much better maneuverability, and more hull. This ship was originally the Itani's primary "light" ship, and they have an improved version, as do several other factions.

Game's Description

The Centurion series of light fighter-interceptors, originally based on an Itani design, was derived from ships long used for flight training and aerobatics by the Order of Itan. Now widely copied, variants of this basic configuration can be found in almost every corner of populated space. 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 a peacetime trainer. Some adaptations, most notably the Border Guardian developed for the nations:Itani military and the 'Rev C' version made by the Orion Heavy Manufacturing Corp (UIT space) have proven very effective in modern combat usage.
