Kruger S-65 Stingray

flight-ready Combat Medium Fighter Size 2 since Alpha 4.10.0

Sleek, balanced, and uncompromising in its vision, the S-65 Stingray is a medium fighter that balances great maneuverability whilst still packing a punch. Taking after its namesake, the Stingray is no stranger to combat, able to swoop in, deliver sustained damage, and swoop out, unafraid to take a few hits in the process.

What CIG says RSI Ship Matrix

flight-ready Medium Fighter Combat Small

Kruger’s first medium fighter combines its signature sophisticated style with a transforming silhouette. The Stingray cycles between Landed, Flight, and the advantageous Combat mode, which reduces its cross-section to make you a smaller target as you maneuver through the field of engagement.
