==Description==
A circular wing design similar to the ''[[Thrush]]'', the '''''Sholagar''''' is another heavily armed light fighter. Mainly seen in [[House Kurita]] forces, and introduced after the fall of the [[Star League]], the ''Sholagar''  began a phase-out program in [[3002]] when [[Akiro Kurita]], nephew of [[Coordinator]] [[Hohiro Kurita I|Hohiro Kurita]], was killed during a routine patrol while flying a ''Sholagar''. A decades-old report of the circular wing design flaws that had been swept under the rug was found, and additional evidence provided in a technological exchange with [[House Liao]] on the ''Thrush'' design, which experiences similar problems. Its atmospheric flight problems aside, the ''Sholagar'' is a top space fighter, although has some problems with heat buildup.

*; SL-21L : This variant replaces the [[SRM-4]] pack with two more medium lasers in the nose. This further adds to the heat problem, but gives the ''Sholagar'' a stronger punch and no ammo dependence.

*; SL-22 : This variant used an XL engine and replaced the [[standard armor]] with 6.5 tons of [[ferro-aluminum]]. The medium lasers have been upgraded to [[ER medium laser]]s, and the SRM-4 launcher is replaced with an [[MML-7]] rack. The heat sinks were upgraded to [[Double Heat Sink|doubles]] for better cooling. BV (1.0) = 802<ref>''Record Sheets: 3039''</ref>

*; SL-27X : This variant uses [[experimental technology]] to improve combat performance. Mounting an [[XXL engine]] to provide thrust, the SL-27X carries three [[light PPC]]s as its main offensive armament. This is backed up by an [[improved one shot]] SRM-4 for quick firepower augmentation. Defensively, the ''SL-27X'' uses an [[Angel ECM suite]] to jam enemy sensor systems.
