Salamander class Missile Fighter

Source message

Here is a nice min/max design for a TL9 fighter. 10 tons is a nice size to get a pilot and gunner and a fairly good computer at the TL (Model 3s require 1 EP, which would give this fighter agility of 0). These are commonly seen in connection with the Asbestos class Carrier

COMMENTS
The Salamander class missile fighters are a compact TL9 design for
local defence use. They have 6G performance with agility of 6.  The
class name salamander comes from their wartime load of nuclear missiles.
Individual fighters are given only tail numbers officially, though many
pilots choose pet names for their craft.  Power Plant 10 is the minimum
for 1 EP in this size hull.  Because this design doesn't have a bridge,
the computer works in combat as a Model 1.
