== Vulture Light Fighter Ship Class =={| align=left|-|style="float: left; border: 1px solid #8cacbb; padding: 2px; margin: 2px;"| [[Image:(s)vultureVulture.jpg|left|220px|thumb]]| The Vulture is considered a very good fighter class ship. The thin frontal profile of the next best thing to the [[Ships:Valkyrie|Valkyrie]] ship makes it a very good fighter when fighting. Some even go far enough to call facing its target, but its large wingspan makes it better than an easy target from above. Many variants make improvements on the [[Ships:Valkyrie|Valkyrie]]ship's speed and mass, of course these people are quite talented. The basic Vulture comes with more health than making them a centurion, and two small portsvery good ship to use as an interceptor to hunt down other players.|{{br}}=== Game's Description ===The Vulture is one of the most popular light fighter-interceptor class ships in use today. Relatively inexpensive and originally derived from an ancient [[Serco ]] terrestrial-use design (known as the Nighthawk), it has since been copied and reinterpreted by nearly everyone. Classical design factors result in a highly maneuverable craft of light weight, with light to moderate weapons capacity and an extremely thin lateral aspect ratio, presenting a very small target during head-on encounters. These features have made the ship popular as a general purpose combat fighter with everyone from national militaries to trade escorts, pirates to bounty hunters. The Vulture is not without its weaknesses, however, also stemming from its aged terrestrial design. The inverse swept wings provide a substantial target to any attacks from 'above' or 'below' the pilot, requiring certain tactical adjustments to be made to use the thinner, lateral aspect to the best advantage. Additionally, the winglet ends have proven to be weak spots in collisions, making Vulture pilots a little less cavalier about confined spaces. The most famous variants of this design are most likely the Guardian, made by the Serco military for patrol purposes, the BioCom Vulture XT from UIT space, and the rumored 'Corvus Vulturius' high speed assault interceptor.
