Description
A Capital class starship with an Inhibitor Device built-in. High energetic demand of the Inhibitor Device prevents the ship from using any other form of defence. To satisfy the energetic needs of the ship’s drive while remaining its mobility, it has been equipped with stronger power generators that take up most of the ship’s remaining space.

While sufficiently mobile, the Inhibitor Frigate must approach the enemy very closely, and its firing time isn’t enough to wear down the enemies possessing the power level of the Princesses. Its complete inability to protect itself from any kind of attack beside psychic makes it an easy target for enemy Frigates and Strike Craft.

The advisable approach is to launch these units in the middle of the Fleet with a Strike Craft and Multigun Corvette escort to fend off smaller enemy units, and with Ion Cannon Frigate support to detach enemy Psychic Units and Capital class ships.

Cloaked Fighter Sensor Upgrade

A completely new, far stronger sensor system for the Cloaked Fighter, allowing it to proceed with search operations on planets and to serve as a scout for eventual battles on the surface of a planet. Upgrades the sensor range by 50%. Unlocks the Planet Surface Scan ability.
