The Scorpius Antares is a interdiction variant of the Scorpius heavy fighter, equipped with a co-pilot operated EMP device and quantum jammer in place of its turret. Specializing in short-range takedowns and squad-focused attacks, the Antares is a powerful utility fighter that can disable and trap enemy vessels while continuing to output significant firepower.[1]

Features

Quantum Dampener
The Quantum Dampener (QDMP or formerly QD) can be engaged to prevent enemy vessels from using their Quantum Drive within a certain range, while active.
EMP Generator
The Antares can emit a powerful Elecro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP), capable of disable enemy craft within a short range and leaving them vulnerable to attack.
Significant Firepower
With a total of four Size 3 gun hard-points as well as racks that hold up to sixteen Size 2 missiles, the Scorpius offers a powerful sting against any enemy craft.

Trivia

  • The ship is named after Antares, a prominent red supergiant star recognized as the most luminous star within the ancient constellation of Scorpius. The etymology of the name originates from the Ancient Greek term Ἀντάρης, which translates to "rival to Ares," reflecting its reddish coloration that bears resemblance to the planet Mars. Antares is situated in the southern celestial hemisphere, positioned near the center of the Milky Way galaxy, approximately 550 light years or about 170 parsecs from Earth, and is visible to the naked eye. If situated at the center of the Solar System, it would reach into the vicinity of the asteroid belt, with its mass estimated to be approximately 13 to 16 times greater than that of the Sun.[2]
