Description
The Type 2 Starfighter “Firefly” is a light and agile craft designed for speed and interception. It is superior to it's predecessor, the Type 1, in all areas. The Type 2 is primarily suited for dogfighting other fighters and intercepting bombers.

The Firefly's speed and agility come at the cost of resilience. Although it's shield is relatively strong for it's size, it can only prevent glancing hits from destroying or incapacitating the craft and pilots are advised to adopt an evasive flight pattern when engaging targets.


Instructions
Speed is the main defence, use it to evade turrets.


Hotkeys
LMB – Rapid Fire Laser Cannons
RMB – Beam Cannons
G – Landing Gear


Monitors
Right – Docking/Landing
Left – Targeting


Known Issues
None


Notes
This ship has a full fuel and cargo system, with luck it should remain relevant for a little while.

This ship was inspired by DarthPeter's excellent fighters, you can check out his workshop here:

Thanks to DarthPeter, Regnion, Propeach and ULTY for their feedback during development.

If you find a problem with the ship, let me know. If you find a bug, tell Tsuna.

@Oxygen Thief - Thanks. It's mostly because I hate the flickering effect that occurs when using multiple glass bricks. :D

I was working on a fighter a little while ago! I'll send you a picture of the version I made in SE on discord. I'm at college now and forgot to upload my progress to the WS I have to have someone at home publish it for me so I can continue working on it lol
