Starfighters Battalion Update
Job Change
Job/Class Name: Starfighter Ground Armor
Current HP: 300
New HP: 400
Reason for HP Change: This job is meant to be a frontline support unit, and currently the HP given to the job does not reflect that role. This change will make SF more effective on the battlefield.
New Job
Job/Class Name: Starfighter Engineer
Slots: 16
Ships: kingpommes_tie_interceptor
Model: This job will have all the SF models so that they can select which one corresponds to their SF rank (Similar to how shock has all models on their specialty jobs)

HP: 400 Armor: 100
Reason for changes: With Army having Regimental Engineers, we think it is a good idea for Naval to have an Engineering job as well. SF is the perfect battalion to have this job. This job will serve the same duties as the other Regimental Engineers. This will benefit SF by giving them something to do, since they are often not allowed to fly during high player counts. SF will be able to do more Passive RP around the ship such as maintenance, console repairs, etc. This will also make SF a more formidable fighting force on the ground, when GMs often only allow one or two SF to fly. This job will be exclusively available to SF that pass a certification program.

Reason for changes: This job will be a new elite sub-branch of SF. They will be the experimental air wing of the Starfighter Corps. It will be a limited, elite squad. The pilots in this unit will be equipped with four different fighters, enabling them to analyze the current situation, and use whichever fighter they see fit to respond with. They will be trained in several mission profiles including Dogfighting, Transport Escort, CAS, Strike Missions, and more.
Do you believe these changes are fair to the battalion/job role it is responsible for and will benefit the server, if so, why?: Yes, I believe that these changes will benefit not only SF, but the server as a whole. SF has been in dire need of a new update, and I believe this update will help revitalize SF.
