CY-12 experimental bomber

CY-12 experimental bomber The CY-12 experimental bomber was a prototype bomber designed and manufactured by Cybe Drives. It was the first Hyperspace bomber introduced but it was succeeded by the CY-14 hyperspace bomber.

History
The idea of a hyperspace-capable bomber was first coined by one of the senior designers of the Cybe Drives Directive Board, Bryna Nar, after a misunderstanding during a meeting. Thus designing of such a bomber commenced, with initial designs making the bomber the seize of a shuttle.

Designs continued to be perfected, and in 147 ABY, the first CY-12 bomber had been manufactured. The original CY-12 suffered from a weaker navcomputer, meaning the calculations were too slow, but this error was perfected in the CY-14 hyperspace bomber.

Description
Through complicated algorithms and calculations, protected bombs and increased weight, a could drop bombs while in hyperspace. This required a strong and modern navcomputer to make the calculations, and the ship required a, making the CY-12 and the CY-14 some of the only fighters developed by Cybe Drives to have an independent hyperdrive.
