Gunship SC1 DevRend2

a gunship

Gunships are terran vessels once used in conjunction with capital ships (e.g. the battlecruiser) before the development of small, dynamic high-speed fighters (e.g. the Wraith). It was found that the Wraith could deal out a similar amount of damage to capital ships while evading most defensive battery attacks.[1]
