The Starhawk is an [[Imperial Navy]] Bomber.
==Overview==Starhawk bombers are larger, slower craft, designed to carry a heavy payload of [[plasma bombs bomb]]s and armour -piercing missiles, for use against enemy capital ships. Crewed by a pilot, co-pilot, [[tech-priest]] (plus acolytes), various turret gunners and a logistics officer, a standard Starhawk features limited sleeping quarters, chemical toilets and even an automated medical unit inside its hull. Armed with a multitude of short-range turret-mounted defence weapons, used to fend off enemy starfighters, a lone Starhawk can wreak havoc among enemy fighter squadrons before swooping in to deliver a crippling missile strike on an enemy capital ship. On rare occasions, Starhawks can be modified to carry and launch a very small number of anti-starship [[torpedotorpedoes]]es.
==History==
The Starhawk is the more effective replacement for the [[Marauder]] bomber following that model's reassignment as an atmospheric bomber. It features an increase in armour, speed and maximum payload over the Marauder .
