{{Quote|The Taipan short-range fighter is Faulcon deLacy's response to the success of Core | {{Quote|The Taipan short-range fighter is Faulcon deLacy's response to the success of Core Dynamics' F-63 Condor and the Imperial Fighter designed by Gutamaya Shipyards for the Imperial Navy. The export restrictions on those models has left a wide gap in the market that Faulcon deLacy intends to exploit with the Taipan. Although most independent navies lack the large, capital-class carriers of the two larger superpowers, a range of smaller ships can be fitted with hangars to deploy small numbers of the craft. The Taipan can also act as a short-range critical-response fighter for starports and surface installations.|In-game description}} | ||
The '''Taipan''' is a [[Ship-Launched Fighters|Ship-Launched Fighter]] manufactured by [[Faulcon DeLacy]].<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/jWgaxuG.png Screenshot of Taipan flavor text]</ref> Designed as a general-purpose fighter for independent navies, the Taipan is relatively slow but built for durability, allowing it to endure prolonged battles more easily and survive hits that would shred other fighters. It can only be deployed from a [[Fighter Hangar]] equipped on a larger ship. | |||
