Sabre Raven

The Aegis Sabre Raven is the high tech variant of the Sabre designed for intelligence missions. Unlike usual variants, it features a redesigned hull that cuts down the wide wingspan of the original Sabre to a smaller profile.

Features

 * Improved Avionics Suite & Storage: The Raven's avionics module has been completely overhauled to include some of the most cutting-edge hardware and software available, and it has an increased data storage for intelligence missions.
 * EMP Pods: The Raven features a pair of EMP generators, one inside each ordnance bay, replacing the missile racks.
 * Low Profile: On top of the standard Sabre's already low-signature, the Raven improves its stealth profile by cutting down the wingspan of the original Sabre.
