The Z-4800 is the newest vessel form the manufacturers of the pirate line, attempting to get away from their legacy of producing slow and chunky ships, the greyhound is not a great success, but at least partially achieves the objective.

In actuality the Greyhound is not a Heavy Fighter, despite being classed as such, but more of a hybrid of Heavy and Very Heavy combining some of the elements of both. In essence the designers created a less heavily armored and armed ship that is able to out turn most very heavy fighters.

The Greyhound suffers, however, compared to other heavy fighters, lacking the maneuverability of other ships in it's class. This has not stopped this ship becoming one of the favored vessels of the Liberty Rogue and Molly Republic though. As such it is a popular sight throughout space wherever credits are to be had.
