Manufacturer's Summary

---

The Bayonet, as it has come to be known, was in development for almost two decades. Blending traditional Border Worlds ship technologies with state of the art systems designed in collaboration with Lane Hacker technicians, it brings an exquisite mixture of firepower, armor and speed to the battlefield.

The vessel's oversized heatsinks play host to a dizzying array of sensitive electronic surveying and splicing equipment, allowing it to maintain the role of a dedicated intelligence gatherer while its more combat orientated brethren dominate the battlefield.

Sarah's Summary

Don't buy one. No, really. Don't. I mean, sure it looks impressive enough, with those six guns and maneuverability that'd make some light fighters blush, and the slim profile, and...

Oh, fine, it's not that bad. Nevermind what the Hackers said about this being a support ship, it's more then capable of holding its own in combat, in the hands of a capable pilot. Falling respectably in the middle range of heavy fighter firepower and hull strength, the Bayonet's real strength lies both it's ability to simultaneously dodge hostile fire in a joust and look like something out of a sci-fi flick. It's power core isn't anything special, but it's perfectly capable of fueling anything you could fit on it. It is; however, a pain to maintain. All that cutting-edge maneuverability comes at a price, so don't buy this one unless you're willing to put in the hours in the workshop, because I certainly won't be. Rumor has it that the scientists aboard Heisenberg keep a few on station, and might be convinced to part with them, if you've got a credit chit to hand.
