Capsule: The SR-71 D-Wing was designed by the Alliance's
Shadow Work design team to be capable of penetrating heavily
defended targets, conduct a recon or a limited strike, and
still be able to get away intact.

In order to achieve the mission profile, Shadow Works had to
emphasize speed at the expense of other performance aspects
such as maneuverability and stealth. The final result was a
vessel capable of cruising at speeds that normal
starfighters could only dream about.

However, since they are very difficult and expensive to
build and requires a tremendous amount of maintenance, they
are normally not issued to local sector commands, instead,
are they used as a strategic reconnaissance resource by the
Alliance High Command.

The D-Wing (Delta Wing) is also known by the nickname
"Blackbird" due to its color.


Game Notes: Sensor operators searching for an Shadow Works
"Blackbird" gains a +10 bonus to their Sensors rolls as long
as the "Blackbird " is underway using its sublight drive.
This is due to the tremendous power output.
