Lore:

Not content to simply update its capital ships, the IMDC was also updating its smaller combat ships. The improved F-15 Kestrel was envisioned as a heavily-armed medium interceptor with Gatling weapons and rockets, arrayed in 4 Gatling turrets, 4 fixed Gatling guns, and a single fixed rocket launcher. Time had moved on even from the this version, however. The IMDC's update of this hull dramatically improves its firepower. The original four Gatling turrets were replaced with improved autocannon turrets. Likewise, the original four fixed Gatling guns were upgraded to autocannon. The original rocket launcher, with its mere four rockets available, received the greatest upgrade. Replacing the rocket launcher were four massive Assault Cannon, allowing significant sustained firepower. The upgraded F-15b Kestrels were deployed throughout the fleet, alongside upgraded versions of their older sibling the F-13 which were now in second-line use.

Armament:
4x Autocannon
4x Assault Cannons
4x Autocannon Turret

Out-of-character:

The Assault Cannons are using a salvo script so they will rapidly fire in sequence. It flies surprisingly well in earthlike atmosphere with a full cargo load. I'd say it should be able to handle Pertam just fine. Just be warned it's a heavy beast and won't stop on a dime. It may also be very awkward to get it to land given Keen's lousy collision on the turrets.
