Ship Background

The Sabretooth is the latest project of the Third Military Research Institute in Eldorado. It exhibits overall steady performance, with prominent results in fire power and mobility. It takes on the battlefield role of assault and interception carried over from its predecessor and possesses improved capacitor and calculation power.

For ship-based arms, this ship adopts upgraded ""Suppressor"" Directional Dark Matter Extractor and ""Laevatein"" Hived Cluster Missile Launchers.

Researchers have used complex improvements to upgrade the propulsion system. Its extremely high mobility and agility allows the Sabretooth frigate to quickly weave in and out of chaotic battlefields to locate important enemy targets to intercept. The weapons systems, which have had their energy usage comprehensively improved, gives the Sabretooth frigate an absolute advantage in fire power output, so both assaults and intercepts are right in its wheelhouse.

When the Cheetah was still in the assault team on the frontlines of the battlefield, the Federation Navy had already started an upgrade project for it. The Neo-Europan military told the Great Council that the goal of this project was to replace the original upgrade of the Cheetah frigate, the Rath frigate. The Rath's disastrous operating system could be compared to the Jaeger series, with even less stability. Like the Chairman of Crowley Inc., Grost Crowley, once said, ""The Rath is a disgrace of Crowley Industrial Corp. "" Of course, this was more than a corporate disaster. It also affected the Navy and orbital defenses, so engaging in a new upgrade became inevitable.

Naturally, this has always been regarded by the United Solar Systems of Hygara to be merely an official statement to hide the gradually emerging hints of militarism from Neo-Europa, otherwise why would it have to develop firepower-type ships one after another?

Fortunately the Sabretooth can't be mass-produced yet, which caused its high price and appeased such doubts. After all, high-level officials believe a ship only has value if it can be mass-produced and serve the army.
