The CORE Scorpion Ultra-Heavy Fighter

	CORE's fighters were just not surviving the hail of fire being thrown at them, while the ARM's fighters came through the same amount of fire nearly unscathed, thanks to thier shielding. CORE could not have this, and so developed the Scorpion - a fighter almost as heavily armoured as a medium frigate, but faster and with a greater arsenal. 3 heavy laser cannons and an anti-fighter turret make this as powerful as any frigate, with a slightly lower cost.
	What are its disadvantages? For a start, it is a fighter, and so suseptiable to anti-fighter weapons. It is also huge, and easy to hit.

Thanks to Mikael for the ship model.
