As Phoenix began to shift its attention towards atmospheric warfare, some of its older starfighter models began to get outdated. When Phoenix began to come under threat of a war with Earth, they knew a new starfighter would be needed, and fast.

Rather than building multiple fighter designs, as before, PFS set about developing a single fighter that could meet the roles required of the previous, aging models. The result was the Spitfire - Part Gunship, Part Fighter.

The Spitfire was designed to carry the firepower and cargo capacity of a gunship, but the speed and portability of a fighter. To this end, it was also designed specifically to fit into carriers that were designed to carry much smaller craft than itself.

Initial tests were more than satisfactory. The Spitfire proved its ability to not only take on larger ships with its heavy armament, but also possessed an interceptor like acceleration that allowed it to evade pursuing fighters easily, while its automated turrets could make short work of any enemy strike craft that dared get too close.


It is of extreme importance that you always lock your wings before moving the ship. This can be done via tab 1, button 4, as seen below. Obviously, you'll need to unlock the wings any time you want to change their position. The wings are also set to automatically lock once you reach over 10 m/s. This is a convenience zone so you can move them while docking with a carrier. However, you should always lock the wings down BEFORE activating the wing thrusters, or your ship will pitch forward and possibly break in the first 10 m/s of acceleration.
