Subject Name: L.S.S. Archaeopteryx
Class: Archaeopteryx-class Space Fighter
Registry #: 583-929-701
Creation Date: 2197
Built by: New Colony Shipyards

The Archaeopteryx Class Space Fighter was designed with a wing style similar to that of Earth's first bird, the Archaeopteryx. It is designed to be a high-speed, quick response, armed space fighter.

The cockpit of the Archaeopteryx seats one pilot and one passenger. In combat, the passenger's station can be operated by a weapons officer. Underneath the cockpit are two high-intensity lights. They double as personal flashlights when detached.

Behind the cockpit are two storage areas. Above these storage areas are small laser turrets. They are of medium capacity.

Behind the storage areas is a large weapons bay. On the right side is a dual pulsar cannon. On the left side is a magneto-amplification emitter ray. It is capable of damaging an enemy's onboard computers and can be operated as a tractor beam.

Behind the weapons bay are impulse thrusters for low-speed maneuvers. In the rear of the craft is a single, large hyperdrive engine. The engine can easily be ejected in the event of an emergency.
