Federal Assault Ship
Heavy Fighter

Description

Many of Core Dynamics customers desired more specific roles for their dropships and the Assault Ship is a response to some of those demands. The Assault Ship is designed for a more combat intensive role than the original ship. It has improved manoeuvrability and weapon carrying capacity and placement. These additions come at the expensive of smaller internals making it less versatile, but better in its specialised role.

The Federal Assault Ship, also referenced as Federal Dropship MkII, was introduced in the CQC update and is a more combat oriented craft compared to the Federal Dropship; it also sports a better flight model, thus it has better speed and manoeuvrability than the Federal Dropship.

It has fewer Internal Compartments than the Federal Dropship, which makes it more of a fighter than a multipurpose ship.[1][2] To purchase the Federal Assult Ship players must have earned the rank of Chief Petty Officer with the Federation's Navy
