[1]The Imperial Fighter, also known as the GU-97 Fighter, is the standard Empire fighter. It is as noted for its high manoeuvrability and firepower as it is for its low shielding and range. It is typically launched as support craft for an imperial cruiser, and is useless on its own if outflanked or outnumbered. It is most commonly seen in conflict zones which include an imperial faction, or patrolling space stations in imperial territory.
The Imperial Fighter is currently accessible in Close Quarters Combat and with the release of Elite Dangerous: Horizons 2.2 "The Guardians" update, the Imperial Fighter is a Ship-Launched Fighter that can be deployed from a Fighter Hangar module.
The Imperial Fighter can be purchased in Empire systems only, but can be restocked in any system.
Description
The blueprint describes the Imperial Fighter "The Empire's standard small class single man fighter is as famous for its agility as it is for its short range. If you see one of these then you know that something bigger is lurking nearby."[2]
Variants
The Imperial Fighter is available in 5 variants, which differ only in weapons and utility slot. F-variants have fixed weapons and G-variants have gimballed weapons.
| Variant | Weapons | Utility | Damage Per Second | Speed [Boost] (m/s) | Pitch / Roll / Yaw Rate (deg/s) | Cost (CR) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aegis F | 2x fixed pulse laser | Point Defence Turret | 44 | 312 [540] | 78 / 144 / 36 | 15,270 |
| Rogue F | 2x fixed plasma repeater | Chaff Launcher | 36 | 312 [540] | 78 / 144 / 36 | 15,270 |
| Gelid G | 2x gimballed beam laser | Heat Sink Launcher | 25 | 312 [540] | 78 / 144 / 36 | 15,270 |
| Rogue G | 2x gimballed pulse laser | Chaff Launcher | 12 | 312 [540] | 78 / 144 / 36 | 15,270 |
| Gelid F | 2x fixed beam laser | Heat Sink Launcher | 45 | 312 [540] | 78 / 144 / 36 | 15,270 |
* This is the cost to initially outfit a Fighter Hangar bay for that fighter type/variant, or to change it to a different fighter type/variant. The cost to restock destroyed fighters is 1,030 CR each.[3]
