The Drakhri had wings reminiscent of the various Dralthi models, but was in fact an entirely different fighter design. Designed as a typical medium fighter, it perfectly suited various roles, among them enemy interception, patrol, and escort. The Drakhri is perhaps best known for its service in the Enigma Sector during the 2660s. Though the fighter had no relation to the Dralthi line, the over-the-cockpit missile rack later appeared in the Dralthi VII's design.

The Drakhri fighter is the lightest medium fighter of the Kilrathi fleet. Its velocity and acceleration are only slightly above average. The Drakhri’s weak shields and armor hardly protect it from enemy hits. Its loadout consists of laser cannon and dumb fire missiles. In spite of its unimpressive design, this ship can still become a formidable enemy in the hands of an accomplished Kilrathi ace. During my duty in the Vega campaign, I barely survived a grueling dogfight with a lone Drakhri flown by Khajja the Fang.
