Compact and efficient, this ship was the first gunboat-class warship developed by the Bounty Hunters Guild. In recent decades, most ships of this type have been replaced by the heavier and more efficient Orca Gunboat. However, the Gunship is still used in some Guild missions, including escorting convoys through areas where strong anti-fighter defense is crucial for surviving.

Compact and efficient, this ship was the first gunboat-class warship developed by the Bounty Hunters Guild. In recent decades, most ships of this type have been replaced by the heavier and more efficient Orca Gunboat. However, the Gunship is still used in some Guild missions, including escorting convoys through areas where strong anti-fighter defense is crucial for surviving.


Handling

The typical combination of the Bounty Hunter's graceful and brutal ship designs, the Bottlenose stands out as one of the top notch fighter hunting ships in Sirius. Smaller and far more manuverable than other ships of her class, the Bottlenose is typically deployed against Bombers targeted for destruction. Contrary to apparent load-outs, most Bottlenose captains avoid the use of BHG Gunboat Turrets and Solaris weapons, favoring the use of heavier Razor and Pulse Cannons for targeting fighters. Any captains using this set up must be sure to keep a careful eye on their energy consumption.
