Kontos class light fighter

HOPE FEDERATION (HOPE/BALEARES)

Back to the Starships and Spacecraft contents

With technology declining as a result of virus impact Baleares commissioned a class of light fighter in an effort to maintain at least some of the worlds technology. Sadly the attempt failed and eventually technology fell below that which could build these fighters from new. The Hope Federation which inherited the Kontos class light fighters found a new use for the fighters as planetary strike craft and has used large numbers of them in its subdual attempts on Nakajima.

The Hope Federation is currently unable to manufacture replacement Kontos class fighters so numbers have slowly been falling. The Federation goes to great lengths to recover damaged fighters in order to cannibalise parts to keep other fighters in service.
