The Ripper is a modified Sienar Fleet Systems GAT-12j Skipray Blastboat. The 25-meter long craft boasts such impressive firepower and shield output that some armament registries listed the vessel as capital-class -- a designation usually reserved for vessels four times the size or larger. The Ripper fills the gap between highly maneuverable starfighters and weapons-laden capital warships. Though not as agile as starfighters, they are nonetheless swift and capable of atmospheric entry and prolonged complex aerial maneuvers. It is one of the smallest Imperial Ships to be equipped with a class II hyperdrive. The starship carries two capital ship-grade Mendarn Arms Dar-2 ion cannons, mounted on the tips of the dorsal stabilizer fins. Its nose-mounted weapons cluster features a mounted Dar-2 medium ion cannon bracketed by ordnance launchers -- a starboard proton torpedo tube and a port concussion missile launcher. On the ship's dorsal surface are twin turret-mounted Senko Systems 5000x2 "Tru-Lok" laser cannons.
