'''Description''': Mysterious attackers that swarmed in from the Rim, the ‘Redhelms’ had advanced technology built into their vessels. They were able to sneak up on the Ipsha Baronies using a new stealth ECM technology, smashing through their growing fleet without stopping. Moving on into Gaim space and then onto Babylon 5, where they were halted at some major cost to the station’s resources, the Redhelm fighters were enough to give major concern to three of the galactic governments.

Aerodynamic and fast, the Redhelm fighter is armed with strange weaponry that (scans later determined) were ‘anti-muon’ projectiles. These weapons actually superheat the atmospheric content inside of a target vessel as it drills into the hull, killing the occupants in a brilliant flowering explosion from within the ship without having to breach the fusion reactor at all. Their technologies made them very difficult to target and lethally effective against other fighters – but were no match for the might of the White Stars.
