JC Lancer

Description

The IM-09 Lancer is the most common Jovian Armed Force Fighter. It was designed around paired fusion drives located under the large dorsal fin. Like all other spacecraft of its type, the Lancer suffers from poor range due to its limited on-board reaction mass reserve. The most obvious feature of the Lancer is the Advanced Tactical Mission Pod (ATMP), a modular housing designed to increase the mission versatility of the vehicle. Most of the offensive payload is carried within the pod, which can be exchanged for a new one within minutes by a trained crew. The large blades along the upper mainframe are an extensive antennae array, which the craft use for both sensor and communication purposes. The rear section features twin reaction mass tanks, which are armored separately to reduce the chance of a fatal leak due to combat damage. Finally, the long dorsal boom mounts two important systems, an array of heatsinks and the countermeasure launcher known as the Active Counter-Measure System (ACML).Miniatures are supplied unpainted and assembly may be required.
