|The [[Esperia]] '''Talon''' is a small and light single-seat fighter designed for escort services and targeted strikes. Built in the [[Tevarin]] style, the Talon has powerful, directional "Phalanx" shields for maximum maneuverability, but weak physical armor once the shields are dropped. A pair of Size 4 [[Ship weapons|weapons]] and a size 3 missile rack complement the Talon's "strike first and strike hard" combat style.

|The [[Esperia]] '''Talon Shrike''' is a variant of the basic [[Talon]] strike craft with smaller weapons and more missiles. The Talon Shrike trades in its Size 3 weapons for Size 1 guns, but has been modified with an internal missile bay carrying 24x Size 3 missiles. Using it's maneuverability and directional Phalanx shields, the Talon Shrike delivers its missile payload quickly on-target before evading pursuit.
