So I start to go deep in research everything
about regarding at2.
I completly forgot in the desk objective raid
sourcebook.
I was looking for the stats about F-500
riever.
Other than FWL producing F-100 and F-700
DCMS also is producing F-500.
But I couldn't find anywhere.
Reading in Luthien S.P. pag 32:"the F-500
carried 1 lrm and 4x srm packs......and the
craft heavy AC...:"
Someone could help me find out this design?
Is it contemplated in AT2 R.S.?
Still in objective raid I saw that Smoke Jaguar
captured the factory producing SAI(replacement x sholagar light aerospace fighter).But I was thinking that SL25 was the
substitute.
Anyway what happened to SAI design.?

Riever F500? Don't you mean the basic F100? It carries an LRM10, 4 SRM-6 and an AC/20. NASTY! The F700 is the upgraded version, carrying the same guns but double heat sinks and an XL engine. Someone might have hit the wrong key and entered 5 instead of 1 or 7.

As for the Sai, no idea.

You could have said that you wanted the stats for the Sai, I was thumbing through my AT2 for the Riever anyway. I just thought you were asking if it was still in production, something I know nothing about.

So the point is:
F-100,F-700,are marik design,and I think they are still producing them.
Instead on Objective Raid is said that F-500
is produced by Kurita.
But I cuoldn't find this design anywhere
in any soucebook in my possesion.
I was wonderig if :
A) is a mistake of printing
B)is possible to find in AT2 R.S.
F-500 is also used in the beginnig for
the battle of Luthien.
You will find it at page 32 of scenario pack.

I have found the F-500 and the F-500a!
It's in the 3025 TRO under the F-100 Riever in the Variants section.
"One interesting alternate model, the F-500a, eliminates the Gamma-10 LRM launcher and replaces it with two more Beta-6 SRM launchers. This particular model is intended to close to dogfight range quickly, and is often accompanied by other fighters armed with long-range weapons to provide cover while the SRM-equipped Rievers move into close combat.
A second variant, armed with two Class 5 autocannon in place of the SRM launchers, sacrifices armor to accomidate the heavy weapons, and is not widely used.
Very few Rievers are used by non-Marik houses, but the Kurita Combine Munitions Corporation has obtained a contract to produce a modified F-500 for Kurita use."

So the numbers got switched sometimes before they made AT2. The SRM variant mentioned in the TRO3025 fluff is called F100a in AT2. Someone probably though it was stupid to jump so many numbers for a variant,.

Not sure if this helps.. if this site is accurate the sai carries an ER PPC, SRM-6 (1 or 2??) with artemis IV and uses a 240XL engine...
