Description: The only defense the relatively slow-moving Vorlons have against enemy fighters and fast-attack cutters, the Vorlon fighter is more a very small ship than it is an actual fighter.

Fast and maneuverable in comparison to their bigger brethren, the Vorlon fighter is a powerful combatant that can absorb a great deal of damage that would otherwise cripple other races’ fighters. Using these natural defenses, they can get in close to an enemy and unleash a very powerful stream of electromagnetic discharges not unlike those that come from the weapons of a destroyer, just on a smaller scale.

When a flight group of these fighters focuses its attention – and its weapons – on even a larger capital ship, they find it easy to carve off large chunks in seconds. Their discharge arrays pour fire into a target while their multi-directional bio-drives allow them to dance around it, never letting it out of their sight, or line of fire.
