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