Description:
Original development by the Misriah Development Arsenal Industry the F/A-23E was built as a potential successor to the F/A-19, the companies most successful fighter so far. It was built to function as a advanced multirole fighter with space superiority in mind, bringing heavy firepower into a fight with high mobility and speed. The offensive weapons of the F/A-23E are many, being armed with a set of beam cannons, ion cannons, internal micro-missile launchers and nine hard points for additional armaments and missiles. With the option to upgrade the ships weaponry with a next generation particle beam gun, and a swiveling/rotating beam cannon turret. The F/A-23E features an unusual four-engine design that mounts four, high mobility boosters upon the main wings. A single FF-3011/C engine on the F/A-23E produces slightly inferior thrust to that of the F/A-19 FF-3001A engine, but the total of four engines in the F/A-23E can produce overall thrust that exceeds the F/A-19.
By far the most impressive capability of the F/A-23E is the fighters amazing operational versatility. The F/A-23E is designed for multipurpose deployment as fighter craft, attack craft, fighter/bomber, reconnaissance and command/control craft for unmanned combat aerial vehicles (Ghost fighters). The F/A-23E achieves success in these varied operational roles by exchanging modules, which allow different pilots to utilize the mission specific characteristics of the customized F/A-23E unavailable in the standard model. Despite all these remarkable advantages, the F/A-23E unfortunately suffers from a high prize tag that has made the fighter unsuitable for mass production.
