Role Details
Role Summary: Heavy Superiority Fighter


Role Details: The Ariston is not the most nimble fighter and is impotent against large vessels, but it is very well armed and armored against small craft. The Ariston is a defensively oriented fighter, flying escort and superiority missions, and never assault. Significant numbers of Aristons will accompany strike missions, but ordinance loads are universily anti-interceptor. Likewise, a reserve of Aristons tends to be kept near capital vessels to launch alongside Nicander class interceptors, so as to engage enemy fighter escorts.


Combat Behavior: Escorts assault craft, provides backing support for intercept and interdiction missions. Merchant Marine variant only performs escort role.
