Description: The heavy raider, or “Turkey” in Colonial pilot jargon, is something of a mystery. Its raider-like head suggests that the machine is autonomous; its larger size indicates it can carry cargo or passengers. A heavy raider’s arsenal includes a battery of autocannons that appear to have a higher rate of fire than those on the raider. It also carries an unknown compliment of missiles, using a delivery system that can be removed and reassembled as a planet side ground-to-air defense system.
