The Super Veritech is the state of the art design for Veritech Fighters. In appearance it looks very much like an ordinary VF-1A, J or S model with the usual variation of head mounted lasers denoting rank. However, closer inspection reveals that it is slightly taller (almost 46ft compared to the 42. 6ft of the regular VF), more heavily armored, and mounted with twin booster jets which enables it to reach nearly Mach 5 to breach Earth's orbit and provide greater mobility in space. Additional weapons include twin missile launchers built into the booster jet unit. Other improvements include better acceleration and mobility.

Weapon Systems
NOTE: The Super Veritech possesses ALL the usual armaments plus the following:
1) Two Short Range, Medium Warhead Missiles in each forearm for a total of four missiles.
Mega-Damage: Varies with the type of warhead used, as does range. Rate of Fire: One or two at a time.
2) Missile Launching Pods (2) mounted on the back of the Veritech along with the twin rocket boosters. Each missile launcher carries a payload of 20, medium range, medium warhead missiles for a total of 40 missiles.
Mega-Damage: Varies with the type of missiles used, as does range.
Rate of Fire: Volleys of 2, 4, or 8 missiles. One volley constitutes one melee attack, even if a total of 8 missiles were launched.
Notes: The auxiliary twin booster rocket jets and missile launcher pods can be jettisoned. Reentry into Earth's atmosphere requires the launcher unit to be jettisoned to avoid air drag. Maneuver ports in the lower leg add to the Super Veritech's maneuvering abilities.
Special Bonuses:
+ 1 to dodge and parry.
+1 extra attack per melee.
These bonuses are in addition to those gained from hand to hand combat.
