UT Viper-X
The Viper-X fills the need for a no-frills, small footprint, carrier fighter.
I had in mind something along the lines of a Colonial Viper, but with the cockpit and part selections available, I couldn’t really build something decent looking without overdoing it on size. I decided to keep in mind the general idea and function of a Viper, but allowed myself some artistic freedom on the design.
To me, the end result looked like a blend of Colonial Viper and X-Wing. …and so, we get the Viper-X.
The relatively high tech level 20 is being driven entirely by those laser guns. The lasers were iconic to the Viper design, so I just had to have them. Replacing the lasers with gatling guns are not nearly as "pew-pew" satisfying; but would allow you to spawn in at level 10 instead of 20.
The material cost is relatively low, so you can pretty easily build a bunch of these. I do see this more as an endgame trinket to add to your CV hangar. Since I’m assuming at this point in the game, you and I are beyond level 20, the tech cost is something I was not too concerned with. I just wanted a cool little fighter!
