The YX-81 Jart

The YX-81 Jart was developed as a complimentary fighter craft to the YX-79 Javelin. While the Javelin was designed to push the envelope of human endurance, and reach the front lines of combat at an extreme velocity while remaining incredibly agile and capable, supporting a fairly impressive weapons loadout, the Jart was made to be a second string fighter. The Javelins would enter the fray being launched from electromagnetic catapults, the Jarts launching from the space stations many launch tubes right behind them. As the Javelins completed their first passes through enemy lines, and began to circle back, the Jarts would enter the fray, and begin selectively targeting the enemy and herding them into the line of the returning Javelins and its devastating weaponry, working together like a well oiled machine.
