The Planetary Fighter was one of the countless products of SoroSuub Corporation. It was not a space superiority fighter for military use. Rather, it was used for corporate security by customs forces. The craft required a single pilot, however, its large cockpit had space for a second crewman to aid in in-flight maintenance of the ship's systems. Alternatively, this space could be used for cargo storage, making the fighter a superb choice for privateers with much gear, or for cargo specialist organizations. A key example of this is at Tinoon Station at Tinoon, which used Planetary Fighters extensively. It had forward dual laser cannons and 2 launchers, each of which was armed with up to 6 concussion missiles. The craft was lightly shielded. While the craft's roll was limited, it had excellent pitch, speed, and acceleration.
