Statistics
Damage capacity: 450
Weapon Power: 60
Weapon Range: 160 km
Maximum Speed: 3800 knots
Notes
Although the weapons are comparatively powerful, they don't reach very far: you can leisurely empty a full rack of AJAX Torpedoes into such a vessel without fear for return fire.
Contrary to the UFOpaedia description, these craft are found on Alien Interdiction missions (though you have to wonder how dumb the aliens are sending such a poor fighter to do it).
This ship appears in Terror from the Deep. For the UFO: Enemy Unknown equivalent, refer to the Harvester.
