Determined to keep ahead in the arms race between lawfuls and unlawfuls, Rheinland was forced to upgrade its already potent ships. As with the Phantom, the Wraith utilizes several new technologies into the base frame. Improved engines and power-plant, along with lighter and stronger armor make the Wraith surprisingly agile. It's no light fighter, but a skilled pilot can keep it out of enemy fire enough to ensure victory.

This vessel is highly restricted, much like its lighter brother. Only elite Military Police units are allowed this expensive craft, along with authorized military personnel.

Handling

Review without version number

Review At 4.86: First of all I must say that I totally agree with the prevouis review by Total.Absolution. I have this ship since about 60 days and I do not want to miss it, because I am loving that fighter more than every other fighter I ever flew. Everyone who critczes this ship, because it is only capital to handle 5 weapons, which are able to fireing forward, is wrong! The powercore make it to one of the best fighters! The only thing I disagree with Total. Absolution is that he did not say that this ship is perfect for a mini razor. If you use a mini razor you are able to kill other snubs very fast, of course you will have the disadvantage of having no CD. Now (8.90): The Wraith is still the best ship I have every used. It is not as agile as Kusari or Liberty ships, but it is agile enough. The power core is still awesome and allows CODENAMED weapons or razor or other very energy expensiv weapons. Pros: Core, Hull Cons: Turret(, Agility for somepeople) Top 10 place: 1 Rate: 10/10 Version: 8.90 Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by RM_Rainer_Marker

Outdated Review (4.86)

Review (4.86) With enough agility to run from a mass of Guardians or Avengers ( Or five Liberty Gunboats ) and the armor to take plenty of hits, the Wraith comes off as an incredibly powerful ship, which is exactly what it is. However, it DOES have some drawbacks. For one, it only has 5 forward firing guns. Where as almost every other Very Heavy Fighter has 6 or sometimes 7, including its main opponent, the Guardian. Stats wise, the Wraith has the edge, with higher armor and agility, a bigger powercore, smaller overall profile, and a bit quicker acceleration. However it does have a smaller cargo hold, one less nano bot and shield battery, and one less forward firing gun. It has a very small spread for its guns, with it's biggest problem being its rather large wings which hold onto 2 class 10 gun slots. This ship fits VERY well with a Debilitator and Hornvipers, or a Debilitator and Firekisses, both guns which are standard issue for Rheinland. Power drain is rather light, considering only 5 guns fire forward, and it has a decent power core. In group fights, the Wraith is a real terror. It can easily dodge incoming fire, and can just as easily dish out serious pain. Against Odins, the Wraith has the edge as well. It has slightly better armor, the same core, and its smaller profile and agility coupled with its speed make quick work of any nasty Hessian patrol you may come across with this beast of a Fighter.

Outdated Review (4.86)

Review (4.86) This ship is a beauty to use. To begin, the hardpoints supports level 10 weapons on 4 of 5 of the points. It can support a level 10 shield too, which can really come in handy when doing patrols and raids. However, the turret on the back can be a pain to work with and doesn't have a great attack area to it. Most of the weapons can reach to all degrees if necessary. The ship has a generous cargo hold and turns with decency. The usual loadout for this ship may consist of Hornvipers, Firekisses and even Debilitators. I equipped mine with Hornvipers, but Debilitators would have been useful in a few situations. I now have a few CODENAMEs on my ship to enjoy with. The Wraith allows for customizations and many fun times. I would mark it a 8/10, the 2 lost points refer to the frigate turret. Otherwise, the Wraith is a good choice for a VHF ship.
