 Wing Commander technology and vehicles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Neutron Gun: prior to the development of the Particle Cannon, it was the strongest beam weapon that could be fielded by a fighter.
Their enhanced muzzle velocity made up for their lesser mass, however, and in the hands of a sharp pilot (and mounted on a maneuverable fighter), the Stormfire cannon could deliver a surprising amount of damage in long bursts of continuous fire.
Unfortunately, this electromagnetic sleight-of-hand requires 20 seconds of locking time, during which the launching fighter must fly straight towards the targeted capital ship, unable to make evasive maneuvers and vulnerable to whatever ship-based weapons can be pointed at it--not to mention any remaining fighter cover.

 Casual Observer's Ships
Heavy fighters are to engage enemy cap ships, while the medium fighters engage enemy fighters.
The next layer is the Apocalypse Class Cruisers and Sharnhorst Class Battle Cruisers with their fighter screens (whose sole purpose is to protect the cruisers from enemy fighter attacks) who close head-on, and engage the enemy at point-blank range with their pulse cannons.
Her heavy fighters often form the center of the offensive fighter punch, while her many medium sized guns are perfect for anti-fighter/close in fighting.

 javelin98's Starmada Factions: Centurion Military Corporation
Centurion Military Corporation, or CMC, was the brainchild of displaced veterans who were cut off from returning to Earth after the catastrophic war of 2491-2493.
An older vessel, it suffers from Centurion’s problematic weakness in shields (the legacy of a former CEO having put an extreme emphasis on offensive power rather than defensive measures), but despite its age, its weapons systems are state of the art.
Built by Centurion as an answer to those few full-blown wars they are hired to fight, the Cairo is relatively rare in the ranks of the Naval Services; only sixteen have been commissioned, as most of the Naval Services’ business comes through their smaller ships for operations other than war.

 Untitled
The class is named for Centauri emperors and the flagship of the Royal Navy is always renamed to coincide with the reigning emperor.
The strategic implications of this class are being examined, but it seems obvious that the Centauri expect this and possible equivalent classes to have a major effect on the balance of power, threatened by the growing Earth Alliance.
This fighter's avionics and sensors are excellent, giving its weapons good range and given the Centauri doctrine of allowing the pilots to rely on the ship's systems for maneuvers that the pilot can't withstand, has astonishing maneuverability.

 Centurion
E.A.S. The Centurion class Dreadnoughts are, at the date, the most powerful warships ever rushed in service by the Earthforce Navy.
The forward hull design has been dictated from the installation of the two Mk XIII Heavy particle G.O.D. cannons, a formidable weapon that is, from all the points of view, an enlargement of the standard models of Heavy Particle Cannons.
The E.A.S. Centurion, less than a year after the service, with her task force, composed of one Nike battlecruiser, three Omega destroyers, and four Lupo class frigates, was involved in a skirmish with an unspecified enemy, probably different from the Drakhs, while escorting the E.A.S Styx in an unspecified mission.

Another 2 skills points to some of the classes wouldn't hurt, but I agree if you are going to add some to any of the core classes without reworking the class, you need to add the same increase to all core classes.
As for having a fighter be specialized or something I allow fighters to have profession or knowledge if it makes sense for a fighter to have, but not becuase the character is just interested in it.
Fighters from the pre-modern era mostly expect to close with their enemy in open combat, not get shot at from behind trees by an enemy using autofire weapons.

 Centurion - Vendetta Wiki
The Centurion ship class is the first fighter class ship you get access to.
The Centurion series of light fighter-interceptors, originally based on an Itani design, was derived from ships long used for flight training and aerobatics by the Order of Itan.
The distinguishing factors of the Centurion series are high speed and good maneuverability, but a relatively limited number of weapons configuration ports, due to its original design as a peacetime trainer.

 Centurion
An innovative feature of the Centurion is the provision of a retractable wheeled undercarriage in the main float, which allows it to be used from airstrips as well as from water (the height of the central float and narrow track of the wheels makes landing the Centurion on land a fairly tricky proposition however).
The Centurion offsets its unremarkable performance with a very heavy armament and it is this latter feature which has proved so attractive to customers.
This success has been reflected by the fact that the RAF is now showing an interest in the plane to replace some of its ageing Siroccos in the Caribbean, an interest probably sparked off by the purchase of four Centurions by the Governor of the Bahamas to protect British interests in the region.

 Eagles Nest class Pocket Carrier(FWC)
A few mercenary fighter squadrons have expressed a strong interest in purchasing this ship and one is currently working for the Free Worlds Council in return for getting one of these vessels.
The ability to maintain fighters is important to the design and otherwise the design for the Centurion class starfighter transport might have worked just as well.

Reread the fighter classs description, these are the "grunts", thats the warrior.
But his job is not to find ambushes and sneak up on the enemy (that's for scouts) or to bandage wounds (that's for medics) or to threaten and frighten people or anything else: his job is to get in there, take and/or hold the ground, and do the actual fighting.
You can pick any skill in the book and come up with a plausible reason for Class X to have it as a class skill, but that doesn't mean it should be one unless it's part of the archetype.

 Waterloo-class Heavy Cruiser   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Serving as ConFleet’s primary heavy cruiser during the 2650s and for most of the 2660s, they were ConFleet's heaviest warships short of the Gettysburg-class battlecruisers.
During the 2660s, all Waterloo-class cruisers were retrofitted with Anti-Matter Guns in place of their Heavy Neutron batteries, and refitted with phase shielding, flak batteries, and extra armor.
Several ships have been salvaged and have been completely rebuilt as a carrier; one such example is the TCS Centurion.

 arbiter.de - M7 Class 'Centurion' Corsair Heavy Fighter   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Often called the "Hand of Mephisto", the original M6 "Centurion" distinguished itself in combat repeatedly.
Despite these victories, the Corsairs continued to refine its basic design until the result was the M7 class, which honorably bears the same moniker.
The new "Centurion", therefore, has not been so much manufactured as bred to be a mighty ship in every way.

The Hyperion Class Heavy Cruiser, 990 meters long, is one of the oldest types of Earth Alliance ships still in service, and they were all built before the Minbari war.
The Hyperion Class has also recently been upgraded, so that it now can carry beam weapons and otherwise improved weaponry.

The workhorse of the guns-for-hire, the Centurion is a highly maneouverable fighter with a sizable weapons payload.
The only non-milspec gunship available to the public, this fighter is the vessel of choice for many bounty hunters and privateers who frequent Kilrathi space.
The Centurion has four guns in a line, which makes it hard to get all four shots to hit the target, while the Demon has them in a box formation.
