Description
The Hammerhead was first deployed in 2407 during the Age of War, and is used as a defensive craft around planets and jump points.
Armament & Capabilities
The Hammerhead has excellent acceleration for a larger AeroSpace Fighter, and after the addition of Ferro-Aluminum armor in the 26th century, is also well-protected. The craft is armed only with a single Imperator Zeta-20 Autocannon, with a mere 15 shots. Therefore, the Hammerhead, like the Ironsides, is best deployed for quick strikes close to supply lines.
Variants
- HMR-HDb - Designed for the exclusive use of SLDF Royal Commands, the HMR-HDb Hammerhead partially compensates for the problem of ammunition dependence by replacing the Autocannon with an M-7 Gauss Rifle and an additional 2 tons of ammo.
