The Renegades designed the Microfighter as a multipurpose platform. It is so compact that some battle cruisers use the chassis as escape pods. While the Microfighter is quite possibly the smallest manned military space vessel, it is not the cheapest. The pilot is fully enclosed in Kinzanite armor with only digital readouts to view, giving him superior protection as opposed to a Duraglass windscreen. It has a solid state reactor (technology stolen from the Skullz) and two tracking duel particle drivers. The Renegades have decided to elect the Microfighter as their standard fighter and have thus rerouted all manufacturing towards producing it. The Microfighter pilot must use numbers and their small size to overwhelm their opponents.
Its own weapons are its weakness; particle drivers were necessitated because of the low energy drain they impose on an already overburdened reactor. The Microfighter is small, fast and deadly but as it fires its particle drivers its trajectory as greatly effected, especially in space combat.
