Description The bane of Jedi pilots and the nightmares of all others who step inside a cockpit. The ZEV "Predator" fighter makes up the bulk of the Sith one fighter fleet. Very fast and very maneuverable, it can overtake any Republic ship and match any Jedi ship. While not overly armed, with four light turbo-lasers and 1 torpedo launcher, it is not a powerhouse but it's speed and maneuverability more than make up for this. With a fully functional hyperdrive engine, it is fully capable of making jumps into battle without the need for a command carrier. While not the best shielded fighter in the galaxy, it is far better than those employed by the SLI and at least as good as those used in Republic fighters. The forward shields are actually better than the rear shields because piolts are expected to always be on the attack and never on the defense. Like Jedi ships, Sith fighters allow for direct interface between the pilot and ship through the force but unlike the Jedi, who use force crystals to interface with the ship, Sith use command collars, devices that actually insert themselves into the pilots spine.

Of course the sith would have there own speedy little death fighter. But this actually looks scary. I'd hate to see a small fleet of those jumping from hyperspace into my system!

Luckily there aren't that many Sith pilots so it is rare to see large fleets of them but if you do you know you're in some deep shit.

Oh yeah, way too deep! But I'm sure the jedi fleet could handle them...maybe.

I have faith in the jedi fleet, but against those things...they'd take huge casualties.

yeah, thats why they don't engage in battle much since both sides would pretty much be destroyed

Seriously...I thought the Cold war ended when the USSR disbanded.
