STANDARD FEATURES:
All Standard features
ADVANCED SYSTEMS
-Computing assistance in flight
-Targeting system adapted for the greater speeds and movement.
-Hyperdrive equipped with computer and necessary systems for jumps.
-Some shielding and armor.
-2x concussive missile launchers.
-4x laser cannons
-Sensor array to avoid blindspots and keep on target.
-Standard life systems.
-4x4 ft storage container for miscellaneous items.
-2x6 ft storage containers along the front running back.
-Communications system with encoding equipped
-Sensitive controls
-Autopilot systems that can be controlled with band remotely by pilot only.
Strengths:
-Computing assistance in flights
-The Evasive biter: Due to the Arrow's design on maneuverability and speed, it is extremely hard to catch and keep track of by other ships and even tracking missiles. This evasive advantage also makes it easy for it to do the reverse, and keep on the tail of an opponent, or attacking larger ships piece by piece.

-Sensitive controls make it easy to change quickly.
-Autopilot systems can be controlled remotely.
Weaknesses:
-Minor armaments: The armory the ship possesses could never hold a candle to a well armored corvette or cruisers. It's designed for lighter crafts like fighters, gunships, bombers, etc. While it might be able to take on freighters due to the concussive missiles. It'd take far too long and many to take down the bigger ships.
-Defenses: While acceptably armored against some shots from other fighters, and most land forces, the ship wouldn't be able to stand direct hits from most missiles or larger cannons.
-No room for a droid: Due to it's design it lacks the room for an astromech droid.
-Sensitive controls can be difficult for some species or untrained over exerted individuals to use.
Description:
Consumables: Rations last approximately three days.
Crew: 1
Cargo Capacity:
-4x4 ft storage container for miscellaneous items.
-2x6 ft storage containers along the front running back.
The Z-42 Arrow is just one of many interceptors that Kuat Drive Yards has made, it is designed after the A-Wing series with praticular influence from the RZ-2 A-wing interceptor and theDelta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor, nicknamed the Jedi Interceptor. And is most simply a modern version of these, but removing the need of an Astromech droid by using better computer systems in their place. While this did mean they were far less useful for traveling purposes, and didn't possess a repair or assist droid in space, this also increased it's potential speed in atmospheric conditions and left more room for the other systems used.
