There are several different kinds of ArTron spacecraft, almost all of which were designed solely by ArTech, the scientists and technicians of Cassius Prime. ArTech actually wasn't officially named until they collaborated with Velmar Industries to produce advanced shielding systems.
Click on the ships to learn more about them.
Light fighters
These craft are small, lightly armed starfighters, equipped with shielding systems and two lasers on struts or pylons. The fact that they have no wings means that they can't fly in an atmosphere. They were the first fighters developed by the ArTron team.
Lf -1 "Arrow"
Lf-5 "Vengeance"
Heavy fighters
These are slightly bigger, faster, and have twice the firepower of the light fighters. They also have wings, allowing them to fly in an atmosphere. Heavy fighters were the second type of fighters developed.
Hf-2 "Crescent"
Hf-8 "Trooper"
Transports
The transports are large ships for moving equipment, materials, people, and anything else.
Tr-7 "Epsilon"
Cruisers
The Cruisers were designed to be heavily armed three-man ships. They have lasers, ion cannons, and missiles.
Cr-3 "Wasp"
Cr-10 "Scythe"
Advanced fighters
These fighters are armed with two or more lasers, and two heavy missiles. They are very fast and quite maneuverable in an atmosphere. But the most superior aspect of these fighters is their Continuous Absorbtion Shielding (CAS). These shields absorb the energy from hostile fire and re-routes it to the lasers, so it is very difficult for an enemy to disable its shields.
Adf-6 "Shrike"
Adf-9 "Nachtkrieger"
Strike fighters
The Strike fighters are used in space combat as well as on planets. They are heavily armed with lasers, ion cannons, and 30mm. cannons. These fighters were the third type of fighters designed by ArTron.
Sf-4 "Aster"
Sf-10 "Blitz" (Lightning)
