Description

From a Terran Hegemony program to develop a small fast attack fighter, the Seydlitz was born. Lightly armored but with a heavy long range punch, the Seydlitz uses it's higher speed and maneuverability to win a fight. Designed as a short range fighter, only three tons of fuel are carried aboard. Seen almost exclusively in the Lyran Commonwealth, a few examples do exist with mercenary units and a few were captured by House Kurita, although none have been seen in combat to date.

Armament

Unusual for an Aerospace Fighter the Seydlitz carries only a single nose mounted RAMTech Large Laser. This does give the tiny fighter the ability to deliver a single devastating blow before maneuvering away from hostile fire and coming back for another pass.

Variants

  • SYD-Z3 - The SYD-Z3 trades arms for armor, replacing the Large Laser for two Medium Lasers and using the three extra tons for armor. Noted for the crudeness of the armor plating, since modifications were post Star League and do not protect vital areas well. BV (1.0) = 552
  • SYD-Z3A - The SYD-Z3A upgrades the medium lasers of the SYD-Z3 to Medium Pulse Lasers, at the expense of 2 tons of armor[2].
  • SYD-Z4 - Featuring an XL Engine, the SYD-Z4 upgrades the large laser to an ER Large Laser. The design also has more armor and more fuel[3].
