==Description:==

===[[Wings of Dawn]] Tech Room Description===
A customized variant of the Ray Mark III, the type-E incorporates several hull optimizations and improvements to the thruster assembly, allowing for higher top speed,increased maneuverability. Lateral thrusters allow the craft to perform strafing runs on capital ships and less maneuverable targets. To reduce mass, the fighter has slightly less armor than the standard Ray III,  and the shield generator is downscaled due to the thruster system's power requirements.

The reflective armor fitted on the Ray III type-E is effective at absorbing hits from energy-based weapons, but is considerably less durable against solid projectiles.

==Veteran Comments==
{{comment| I certainly prefer this one over the Ray III-W. It gives you the speed and maneuverability you need to turn and actually get behind to shoot the enemy craft. It's shields are indeed a little weaker than the plain Ray III or W, but they also regenerate slightly faster as well. Overall, it handles more like a dream than the original Ray III and it feels like I'm flying the [[GTF Perseus]] all over again. Sadly, however, its lateral thrusters accelerate too slow to be of any real worth. }}
