Dralthi II in fleet colors, Antares Sector circa 2655.
|
HISTORY
The Dralthi II marked the first total revision of the Dralthi design. The Dralthi II replaces the standard lasers with a pair of mass driver cannons, and also boasts a fully redesigned shield system. The Dralthi II also removes the ejection system found in the original Dralthi.
Kilrah first deployed Dralthi II to strike fleets in the Vega Sector in 2655. The fighters quickly found their way to Firekka for the Sivar-Eshrad ceremony, where they flew missions against Austin and Tiger's Claw pilots.
Not all the Dralthi II at Firekka flew for the Empire: during the fighting, Khantahr Ralgha nar Hhallas defected to the Terran Confederation, bringing with him the Fralthi-class cruiser KIS Ras Nik'hra and her complement of fighters. In a series of covert missions, pilots off the TCS Tiger's Claw flew the captured Dralthi II squadron in a series of reconnaissance and escort missions.
