Recognition notes
The Tyre 3 is a 55-ton fighter flown in the attack role, rebuilt from the Tyre around a wholly different weapons fit. Where the original massed an Ultra AC/10 and seven Medium Pulse Lasers, this model mounts an LRM 20 with Artemis V FCS and a pair of ER Medium Lasers in the nose, and trades the wing pulse lasers for a single Improved Heavy Large Laser on each of the right wing and left wing. The aft ER Small Laser gives way to a Laser Anti-Missile System in the aft, and CASE now protects the right wing and left wing as well as the fuselage. Ferro-aluminum armor replaces the standard plate of the original, and heat sink count rises from 16 to 22 double heat sinks. Janesek Industries builds the type at Orestes.
