Description: The Danrik is the most expensive private fighter in the Tri-System. Danriks are popular in corporate and mercenary roles. Hugo Carmichael of Blessed Aquawine flies a Danrik. Danrik pilots can afford to be unscrupulous: a pair of Danrik once defended a transport carrying weapons to Karatikus against an attack planned by Lord Mike Vonx. Two members of the Tri-System League of Hunters fly Danriks: Aroon Stenbor and Philipe Rellem.
The Danrik is also popular among terrorist causes. Six terrorists flew Danriks during an operation to bomb a CIS communications satellite. Blackstaff, one of the terrorists who targeted Shimmell Medi-Corp's space station, also flew a Danrik. Most impressively, Jaren Xi, one of the Tri-System's finest pilots, flies a Danrik.
The Danrik entered service before 2785. Notable Danrik include REG No: D468_357V (2786) and M834_435F (2787).
