The T1-A Shira- class Interceptor, also known as Shira-class Fighter is the primary fighter aircraft deployed by the Feline Matriarchate at the onset of the Great Race War. [1] Essentially a militarized personal aircraft, the Shira was readily available in great numbers and with surprisingly little modifications required to adapt her frame into a combat use.
Characteristics[]
T1-A Shira Features a dart-like chassis equipped with a backward swept wings and a single engine. The wing tips feature a pod-like gravity stabilizers. A single ventral MA-p1 pulse cannon is attached beneath the cockpit. Unusually, the pilot operates the aircraft from a forward-leaning position to make full use of the feline's natural flexibilty.[2][3][4]
History[]
Pre-Great Race War (From the Author)[]
Before the Great Race War T1-A Shira was used as an ordinary personal vehicle, albeit without the ventral pulse cannon attachment.
Great Race War[]
Battle of Midgård[]
In a dire need to combat The Crystal Guard Temple Cruisers, a number of personal air vehicles were converted to the military use and installed with the pulse cannons secretly assembled at Midgård's underground cargo bays. They were then used to attack and destroy several canine evacuation transports.[5][6]
