Description: The R-41 Starchaser is a multipurpose starfighter which is often used by pirates and planetary defence fleets, and although it was released shortly after the Z-95 Headhunter still manages to be a reasonable fighter even when compared to newer starfighters. The R-41 is a well rounded vessel, which does not excel in any particular area, but is fairly fast, tough and well armed, as well as having Ion Weaponry which make it at least on paper a good starfighter. In real life however, the Starchaser is unmaneuverable, slow, and lacks the punch of missiles or torpedoes, making it famously poor in combat. This has not stopped the fighter from selling in massive quantities and becoming a common sight on the spacelanes.
