Raptor class
Escort fighter

The Raptor class escort fighter was designed with simplicity in mind. With short build time, high effectiveness, and compact size, the Raptor class has quickly found a home in the shuttlebay of nearly every class of vessel.

Mounted on each of the Raptor's three wings are a potent GLG-25 plasma cannon, mounted forward; an ATI-m1 Anti-Torpedo Interceptor missile launcher; and a Tolstoy IP-III series impulse engine.

Aside from the Raptor's most apparent weaponry is another, extremley powerful feature; on the forward edge of two of the wings is a matter stream emitter; on the third, an anti-matter emitter. These three beams converge on the forward polaron beam projector and stream outward toward the target, inflicting damage at least equal to a mark-IV photon torpedo.

The Raptor class remains in service today, a full 1820 units in operation as of stardate 79001. Its future looks bright, with a fleet-wide refit of all Raptors planned within the next 10 years.
