The Valkyrie-class Interceptor is a multi-functional attack fighter which was originally utilised by the Starfleet following it's introduction in 2380 before becoming one of the predominant craft used by the Starfighter Command in the early 25th century.

Normally, these fighter operate at impulse speeds and are delivered by a larger Starfleet vessel.

Profile

The Valkyrie is designed to function in a multitude of environments as well as roles. To be capable in all the varied conditions the systems are designed with flexibility, versatility, and stability in mind.

Craft Overview

Scenarios

  • Fighter vs. Fighter: Two twin phaser banks at the front of the craft give it a wide firing base and the targeting systems on the craft allow it to hit specific systems on larger ships. Typically the hard points not used, or is used to carry fuel for longer range missions. The extra mass reduces the manoeuvrability of the craft.
  • Fighter vs. Starship: Speed and manoeuvrability are used to keep the starship's weapons at bay. The Valkyrie typically targets systems on board the ship in able to gain an upper hand. The hard points can be outfitted with a munitions pod that can carry extra weapons such as micro torpedoes.
  • Ground Support Role: The Valkyrie can use thrust vectoring to fly lower and slower to support the friendly ground forces. The hard points usually outfitted with ground attack munitions of a varied kind, depending on the mission and environment.
