Description
The Ostrogoth is a late Jihad era heavy OmniFighter that was created by Clan Ghost Bear. The fighter was produced at the Clan's Tseng Facilities on Alshain in the late 3070s and was intended as a replacement design for fighters lost during the war. Due to high pilot losses, the Ghost Bears had the design incorporate better protection while giving better handling. The fighter was designed principally in the role of an interceptor.[1]
Combat units first received the Ostrogoth in late 3078 where it was sent to units slated to participate in the campaign against the Word of Blake Protectorate. The Ostrogoth was deployed in medium fighter Stars where it was teamed with older and slower designs such as the Jengiz. The Ostrogoth, deployed among them, used its higher maneuverability to surprise and overwhelm Blakist fighters attempting use their own speed to overwhelm the slower units. After the war, the fighter's cost compared to the role it maintained was questioned by outside media sources. Despite those doubts, Clan Ghost Bear maintained production into the 3080s.[1]
The Ostrogoth is powered by a 375-rated extralight fusion engine noted for high maintenance costs. The design blends speed and agility typically associated with a medium OmniFighter with the armor protection of a heavier fighter.[1]
Weapons and Equipment
The Ostrogoth was designed with 35 tons of pod space.
The Prime configuration is designed to accommodate all ranges brackets. Its long-range weapons includes a pair of wing-mounted Artemis IV guided LRM-15 launchers, and a nose-mounted ER PPC. At closer ranges, its seven ER medium lasers can be brought to bear with the seventh laser covering the aft quarters. To help with the weapons' heat load, five additional double heat sinks are added. The fighter carries four tons of ammunition for its launchers. The configuration also sports a targeting computer and a Guardian ECM.[1]
Alternate Configurations
- Alternate Configuration A
- The Ostrogoth A features pair of ER PPCs as its only long range weapons. For its short range weapons bracket, it has pair of Streak SRM-6 launchers with a single ton of ammo for each wing. It has a single ER medium laser mounted to protect its aft. The A configuration equipment also includes an active probe, ECM suite, targeting computer and nine additional double heat sinks. BV (2.0)=3,265[1][3]
- Alternate Configuration B
- This configuration's main weapon is a nose-mounted HAG 30 which has three tons of ammunition. Secondary weapons include three ER medium lasers and pair of Streak SRM-6 launchers with three additional double heat sinks. It also shares the ECM suite and targeting computer of the Prime configuration. BV (2.0)=3,171[1][4]
- Alternate Configuration C
- The C is heavy missile carrier, which uses pair of Artemis IV-guided LRM-15 launchers each of its two wings. These launchers are supplied with eight tons of ammunition. The fighter's limited backup weapons are a single ER medium laser and aft facing ER small laser. Two additional double heat sinks are added as well as an ECM suite to round out the equipment installed for the configuration. BV (2.0)=2,899[1][5]
- Alternate Configuration D
- The D configuration introduced in 3100[6] carries an ER PPC, Gauss rifle, and LRM-20 in the nose. The missile system has an Artemis V FCS to improve its targeting. A targeting computer enhances the PPC and Gauss rifle's accuracy. To disrupt enemy communications and targeting systems, the Ostrogoth-D carries a Watchdog CEWS. BV (2.0) = 3,168[7][6]
