These are the latest additions to the compliment of auxiliary craft for the ''Ronin''. Smaller and more agile, Valkyrie class ships will be used for a variety of missions, from planetary assault to spacecraft interdiction. Unlike the Peregrine, the Valkyrie class is intended to be used in small groups, where a local shield can be projected and shared by the fighters during an attack run. Each small ship contributes a portion of its resources to the group shield, thereby savings power to divert to weapons and repair systems.
