Sol:Aggressor (Light Fighter)
"It is ironic, really, that such a feared object was named after what gives us life."
With its distinctive star-shaped wing configuration, the Sol is used by high-profile mercenary associations. The craft was perfected for use by AI, too, so in large-scale battles, it is not uncommon to see one of these fighters with an empty cockpit. While very dangerous, not many pirate or criminal factions posess a Sol fighter, as it can only dock to a certain model of mothership.
Controls:
Activator 1: Shotgun online.
Trim: Trim.
Tips:
Try the yaw!
Combat is best at about 50% throttle.
It may be a little hard to control, but when controls are relinquished to AI, it dominates at close range.
(Desc coming soon! Works really well in AI combat! around 50% throttle is ideal for combat. Yaw capability is pretty good too. AG1 for shotgun. Trim for trim. start in air.)

Interestingly, this makes an amazing counterpart for the better TIE fighters.
@Sinicus That would certainly be an awesome build.
I really wish i had this app on steam. I want to make a ship with a bunch docks shaped like that star at the back of the ship
@Harunami It's certainly an annoyance at close ranges. Good fight, and good video!
I found the Sol so tough to tangle with in a dogfight. I had to make a cheap getaway and missile it down in a plane with a missing elevator, haha.. :)

This Fighter killed my Bomber over the Mercenary Base :/
@Thepilot172 @TheFlyingDerp Yes. It was inspired by that ship.
@Thepilot172 that's... what it is most likely based off.
Dang
Amazing
(i wish i could spotlight this)
i like the lights along the back of the wings!
Reminds me of your old build style
nice work!
JUST COOL!!
SUPER COOL... I REALLY LOVE YOUR FUTURISTIC BUILDS...
@AudioDud3 "All Nova pilots, interlock and form a blockade! The Dark Aster must not reach the ground!"
@AudioDud3 Inspired by those ships, Yes, but quite different.
@randomusername Yeah, I got unlucky on this one... It is likely that not many of my followers are online.
@spefyjerbf
You should make a big ship and make it able to deploy a bunch of these
@TheFreemaker Thanks! I have finished the desc.
