Unfortunately, tartarus, the rogue torpedo, costs 10,401 power, and this has a 10,400 power core, so... Out of your 4 guns, you'll have to have a shieldbuster, turning you into a VHF with a very weak amount of damage.

The Z-4800 is the newest model from the Z Series line of ships. Designed by the principle of need rather than creative design, the Greyhound is a stripped down combination of a number of heavier ships from the ship line, designed to at the very least match the speed and capabilities of mainline fighters of other factions. While not particularly exceptional in flight, the Greyhound nonetheless fills the escort niche, so desperately needed among users of the Z Series ship line.
