− | Purchased by Black Sun Lieutenant and former Bounty Hunter [[Chir'daki]], the ''[[Lethan]]'' is a [[NovaSword Space Superiority Fighter|''NovaSword'' Space Superiority Fighter]] that was used primarily as a surface-to-orbit transport for himself and his [[Roy|bodyguard]], to avoid the often complicated process of landing his 55 meter [[Horizon-class Star Yacht|''Horizon''-class Star Yacht]], the ''[[Rutian]]''.

− | Despite it's rather mundane usage, the ''Lethan'' was a fast, agile, and well-designed combat craft. Though equipped only with a pair of laser cannons, the high manoeuverability and impressive accelleration allowed it to put those weapons to good use, and the carefully-crafted hull provided aerodynamics that gave Chir'daki a definate edge in atmospheric combat. The craft was at times utilised as the designers intended, often in pursuit of particularly evasive targets. Another seldom-used feature of the ''Lethan'' was it's hyperdrive: with the far more spaceous and comfortable ''Rutian'' available for long-distance travel, the drive was seldom used for anything aside from short inter-system jumps to conserve fuel and reduce travel times.

− | Over the course of it's service to Chir'daki the ''Lethan'' did undergo some minor modifications. The targetting and navigation systems were upgraded, and the weapons systems completely overhaulled: the twin laser cannons were replaced with a cluster of three emitters - twin blaster cannons, and an ion cannon. The craft was capable of delivering an ion blast or a pair of blaster bolts from each wingtip, or could discharge all three emitters in concert, simultaneously overwhelming and overloading a target's shields. Further modifications included the conversion of the ship's external cargo bay into a pressurised chamber, just large enough to store a single humanoid for short-range flights.
