The Tauren fighter.
Class/Model/Name: Tauren TRN-91B
Tech: Inner Sphere / 2991
Vessel Type: Aerospace Fighter
Rules: Level 1, Custom design
Rules Set: AeroTech2
Mass: 100 tons
Frame: StarTech Mod II
Length: 20 meters
Power Plant: GM ATF 300 Fusion
Safe Thrust: 5
Maximum Thrust: 8
Armor Type: Detroit Special Standard
Armament:
1 Armstrong Requiem Autocannon/20
3 Aberdovey Mk III Medium Laser
1 Devastator Series-07 LRM 10
2 Cyclops Eye Large Laser
Manufacturer: Jalastar Aerospace
Location: Galax
Communications System: O/P AIR 1200
Targeting & Tracking System: O/P Scanoptics Model 5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
Already having a good stock of "utility" fighters, namely the Corsair, Davion
fleet command wanted a new assault fighter to be deployed during planetary
assaults. One year later, Jalastar Aerospace submitted the plans for the
Tauren.
==Capabilities:==
The Tauren, while relatively slow, mounts some of the heaviest armor ever seen
on an aerospace fighter. This protection is good, as the fighter must get
quite close to use its primary weapon, the Armstrong Requiem autocannon. To
help offset the short-range cannon, the Tauren also mounts a Devastator
Series-07 missile rack.
To cover the closer ranges, the Tauren also sports twin Cyclops Eye Large
Lasers, and three Aberdovey Mk III Medium Lasers, one of which faces rear.
==Deployment==
The Tauren is deployed across the Federated Suns, stationed in the assault
wings of most RCTs.

IT SUCKS!!!!
Sorry, just wanted to say that once.
I'm not that great with aerospace fighters, but it looks pretty good. The weapons load looks nicely well rounded, only a lttle short ranged.
The one thing is the armor - I think that most canon fighters have quite a bit more rear armor, as most aerospace fighters would presumably be attacked from the rear.

I don't really have a reference, as my TROs are either in Aerotech 1 (3025 Revised) or measure the armor in capital-scale (3057: Dropships, Jumpships, & Warships). _________________ Evil is like a bowl of oranges.

You have Heavy Metal Aero. It has every fighter in it. Just like it has every WarShip. And they're in AT2 - at least I think they are.

The only canon designs I have are for dropships, a few small craft, and the occasional conventional fighter. I wonder why _________________ Evil is like a bowl of oranges.

Found 'em
They were in a different folder. Lucky me that I mis-clicked, eh? _________________ Evil is like a bowl of oranges. Only one, instead, is an orange of DOOM. That orange has a fate to rule over the other oranges with an iron fist. That orange is me.
