The Hunter is drastically different to the Interceptor, in that its petals are not of constant length. It has 4 Frontal Petals shaped like large curved blades with lightning emitters on the front, shaped like small round bumps. The Hunter then has 4 Rear Petals shaped more bluntly. These 8 Petals counter-rotate and glow a greenish-yellow when the Hunter is about to attack. The Hunter also possesses a near opaque, reddish cockpit window. It is unknown if this indicates the presence of a pilot. | The Hunter is drastically different to the Interceptor, in that its petals are not of constant length.

The Hunter is a relatively weak vessel, with [[AX Multi-cannon|Enhanced AX Multi-cannons]] being sufficient to take one down. However, the Hunter will immediately start with its shield up, and will regenerate it rapidly when using lightning. It is quite weak to the Thargoid Seed Mines found in the vicinity of the Titan and one to two detonations within range can kill an unshielded Hunter with ease. | The Hunter is a relatively weak vessel, with [[AX Multi-cannon|Enhanced AX Multi-cannons]] being sufficient to take one down.
