{{Review|[[User:Ron|Tom Simms]]| Although not one of the best ships in it's class, the SV-17 may in fact one of the prettiest. It's sleek design and beautiful rear thrusters make this a sight for soar eyes. Don't let it's look deceive you, however, as it's 4 class 10 and 2 class 9 forward guns can really cause havoc for anything smaller than a gunboat. It's forward and aft profiles are fairly low, but can easily be bulls-eyed from the top or bottom. This ship is very much a heavy fighter, In combat, this ship has a standard 200m/s afterburner speed, and it's agility is a bit higher than that of some other ships of the same class. The guns are your standard, but the extra forward gun in replacement of a gun turret is nice, considering your never going to be firing behind you in the Virage. In all, it is by no means the best fighter in Sirius, but you can't beat the price, or the look.  |4.86}}
