DESCRIPTION
In many ways, the Jai'Gaalar-Class Starfighter was designed by MandalMotors because the Mandalorian crusaders were in desperate need of a standard starfighter that could be produced in numbers without sacrificing quality. While the initial gift of ships from the Empire could be used in the meantime, the simple fact of the matter was that the Imperial ships did not mesh seamlessly with Mandalorian ideology or tactics. Rather than wave after wave of disposable fighters, Mandalorians believe that one Warrior can make a difference on any battlefield and protect them to ensure that they get the chance to do so.And they also believe in entering any engagement with overwhelming firepower.
Taking lessons from both the X-Wing line of fighters from the Republic and the Aquilae-Class fighters from the renewed Sith Empire, the Jai'gaalar-Class Starfighter is the result of combining both with the mindset of a Mandalorian. With four medium laser cannons, the Ayahada can both dogfight with other starfighters and lead significant attacks against larger ships. However, the true firepower of the Jai'gaalar-Class Starfighter comes from its well-stocked front-facing launchers.
With eight independent launchers, the Jai'galaar-Class Starfighter can launch a barrages of concussion missiles or proton torpedoes depending on how each launcher was equipped before launch, making it a much larger threat toward both larger ships and other starfighters.
