History

P-64 Ferret Target Designation.

The P-64C Ferret is amongst the lightest fighters in the Confederation fleet. Commonly used as a patrol craft or in reconnaissance roles. It was used extensively by the Confederation in the 2660s to replace the aging F-36 Hornet. They served until the Battle of Terra when they were replaced by newer models of the F-27 Arrow V. The "D" variant of the Ferret, often called the Super Ferret had improved avionics and included more firepower.
