I like the Vaktoth. Eight missiles, twin plasma cannons, twin ion cannons, and a tachyon cannon, with decent shielding, speed, and maneuverability. I would say that the Vaktoth is the equal of the Thunderbolt.
I might like the chance to fly the asteroid fighter too--it has surprising speed and maneuverability for something covered in twenty tons of rock--as good as the Vaktoth, with the same shields and more than triple the armor. If you could use normal missiles instead of mines then whoa momma! Sixteen misiles, 250 shields, 500 armor, four Reaper cannons, twin Meson cannons, and speed and maneuverability to match a Vaktoth! Talk about flying destruction, this baby could probably take on a pair of Excaliburs and win if flown by a good pilot. Too bad there weren't any aces who flew these things in WC3.
