Specifications
Design details
The Phantom Gunboat is similar in to the Type-52, the Gunboat however is designed more as a combat superiority craft, than a troop transport. It is equipped with a chin-mounted heavy Plasma Cannon and 4 side-mounted plasma auto-turrets, two on either side and one aft plasma auto-turret. It also has an impenetrable energy shield in front of it.
Operational history
Several Phantom Gunboats assaulted Anchor 9 during the Fall of Reach, during Operation: UPPERCUT. They were escorted by Type-31 Seraph-class XMFs and Type-27 Banshee-class XMFs. All the attacking Gunboats were destroyed by Noble Six who was defending the station in a Sabre.
