The RF-42 Centaur Tactical Fighter is a premiere space superiority slipfighter.
Designed to conduct high speed, fire-and-forget combat maneuvers, it is unmatched in its ability to engage multiple targets at short and medium distances. The primary mission of the Centaur is to provide combat patrol support for Heavy Cruisers and Atmospheric Attack Craft Carriers. It also flies tactical escort for strike fighters and conducts suppression of enemy defense operations during interplanetary combat.
The Centaur is equipped with dual AP Cannons and 2 ELS tubes which fire OM-5 offensive and defensive kinetic kill missiles. The Centaur can be piloted either from the cockpit or remotely from a Flight Operations Center.
