WH40K/Barracuda

From SEWiki

Barracuda Superiority Fighter

In the WH40K Mod, these are the most numerous fighter in the Tau Navy, and are often used to support the Fire Caste in battle. The Barracuda is typically armed with an Ion cannon mounted off-center on the nose, and a pair of missile pods. Mounted on each wing is a burst cannon independently controlled by an AI similar to those used in Gun Drones. It may also carry seeker missiles for use by ground troops. In one on one engagements the Barracuda is slightly better than its Imperial equivalents the Thunderbolt and Lightning. However the lack of combat experience of Tau pilots usually evens this balance out, making for a very even match.
