 Built purely to push the limits of star fighter performance, the YV1 Wahoo boasts impressive specifications in most STL aspects. While FTL performance leaves much to be desired future plans include detachable drones built specifically to assist the Wahoo in areas it lacks including FTL travel and defensive reinforcement. Built purely to push the limits of star fighter performance, the YV1 Wahoo boasts impressive specifications in most STL aspects.

 The wing hardpoints themselves are designed to be cross-compatible with the equipment of most popular brands of star fighter equipment. If it wasn't enough the engineers have also designed these hardpoints with the ability to detatch any payload at will. So if a rocket pod is empty it can be ejected to shed off dead weight. Perhaps the most creative use, or rather abuse, of the innovative hardpoints is the ability to mount weapons backwards. With no armor it is imperative that a pilot keep his rear view clear of hostile fighters and what better way to do that than surprise them with a missile? Why not a machine gun, or basically anything that fits?! Dedicating a hardpoint to a rear firing weapon is a fantastic way to dissuade pursuers! The possibilities are limited only by the imagination, however a list of [[corp:fscorp:products:wahoo:suggested loadouts]] exist for those who prefer to simplify the process.  The wing hardpoints themselves are designed to be cross-compatible with the equipment of most popular brands of star fighter equipment.

 Each engine is equipped with a valve to feed in the same ingredients found in 80mm smoke screen submunitions. By using the engines thrust to disperse the smoke the craft can create an impressive field of smoke from behind it and each engine carries 30 seconds of smoke. Each engine is equipped with a valve to feed in the same ingredients found in 80mm smoke screen submunitions.
