Unit Outline:
    A small animal with an incredible rage, the Shavet is well known for its ferocity.  Similar to the animal found on Cardavia, the Shavet is designed to take down enemies that are much larger.  Its missles and protective systems make it a threat to bombers and capital ships, its main enemies.

System Specifications:
    The main weapons of the Shavet are twin Space Grasers.  These S-Grasers have a longer range, and are much more powerful than their land based cousins, but have a significantly reduced rate of fire.
    The main anti-ship/bomber weapons of the Shavet are the two, 2-tube Space MicroFusion missle launchers.  A more powerful, farther ranged version of the standard MF, the SMF-2s have an extremely long range and their accuracy and power is incredible.  These are the main weapons against capital ships.
    The Shavet is protected by 7 tons of ArMax armor, as well as a Type 10 HiCS System.  The combination allows it to take alot of hits while attacking its enemies, which are usually well armed. 

Operational Capabilities:
    While Shanras and Faenoks are deadly against any fighter, they are not as well suited for attacking larger ships (bombers and capital ships) as the new Shavet.  Though it only has two S-Grasers, its quartet of missle launchers allows it to eat up bombers quickly, as well as do damamge to capital ships.  In addition to its ability to destroy bombers for fighters groups, They can be used to support or be a smaller, faster, but less armed alternative to larger Badroks and Harkanos. They are the most powerful ship for their size in the KCDI Fighter Forces.
