The '''Ares Star Fighter Inferno''' is an anti-capital fighter manufactured by [[Crusader Industries]]. It comes with an integrated size 7 ballistic gatling by [[Behring]]. Capable of devastating sustained fire, the Inferno overwhelms enemies with unrelenting fire, taking down smaller ships and quickly shredding the hull of large vessels. Though capable alone, this ship is a potent ally to the [[Ares Ion]] in capital ship hunting; pairing its armor-piercing rounds with the ION's shield-disabling shots.

This combination enhances the Inferno's effectiveness in hunting down capital ships.[1]
