Way out of mass production, this flying antique is still used today by many mercenary groups and skilled freelancers. Most veteran pilots owning and operating these vessels know the ship inside and out. Due to its popularity with professional pilots, several joint-effort companies still build these ships by hand, using the original blueprints and a little ingenuity. info=The design was copied shortly after mass production by pirates, but most of the resulting knockoff ships lacked the unique engine that the Enforcer was known for. Eventually the blueprints were recovered from a military raid on a pirate convoy. -info=At first glance, the Enforcer has little distinctive features compared to most recent ship designs. However, one feature it has that other ships do not is its innovative engine design. The Enforcer's twin fusion drives are used for conventional thrust, and impulse speed can be achieved simply by increasing power. In modern ships, a dedicated impulse drive is used, but the Enforcer's special electromagnetic array at the exhaust section focuses the fusion reaction into a thin burst. This prevents the ongoing fusion reaction from enveloping the ship. Unfortunately, this design is not allowed on newer ships because it tends to explode extremely violently in combat, or otherwise in the event of a failure if extreme caution is not used during maintenance. -info=Switching to impulse speed causes a different kind of effect in the Enforcer, known as the 'jolt' by veterans, because impulse speed is attained almost instantaneously with its unique engine. +info=At first glance, the Enforcer has little distinctive features compared to most recent ship designs. However, one feature it has that other ships do not is its innovative engine design. The Enforcer's twin fusion engines are actually fully-fledged impulse drives, which can sustain a nuclear reaction when thrust is lowered significantly. This allows the engine to be used for conventional thrust as well as impulse cruise speed. Unfortunately, this design is not allowed on newer ships because it tends to explode extremely violently when shot down in combat, or otherwise in the event of a failure if extreme caution is not used during running maintenance. ; ------------------------------------------------------------------ ; ; COLONIAL |
