The Scorpius Antares is a variant of the Scorpius heavy fighter, equipped with a co-pilot operated EMP device and quantum jammer in place of its iconic 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]
The Scorpius was designed by RSI's Applied Innovations division in Kilian and tested by the 999th Test Squadron of the UEE Navy.
Features
- Quantum Enforcement Device: The QED can be engaged using "Quantum Dampening" 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.
