	===~~Tech Room~~ Description===		===WCS Description (F-44G Rapier II)===
	In its day, the Rapier II had a reputation as one of the best all-purpose dogfighters in the Fleet. One of the most cost efficient and effective fighter during the mid 2650s to the late 2660s, almost all carriers in the fleet had at least a squadron or two of Rapiers onboard. The majority of all front-line Rapier II squadrons have transitioned into the newer Hellcat V, but an excess of these versatile fighters still see combat in the active reserve and Home Defense units.

			===Klav's WC1 Shippack Description (F-44A RapierII)===
			The Rapier II first saw combat aboard the TCS Tiger's Claw: a pair of YF-44s were assigned to the carrier for active duty testing during the invasion of the Gimle System. Major Michael Casey and Captain Jeannette Devereaux of the Star Slayer Squadron credited the fighter's first kills during a three point patrol mission. The prototypes performed magnificently and the same carrier soon received the first batch of production models, which Black Lion Squadron would fly during the battle for Kurasawa. By the invasion of Venice, Rapier II squadrons were assigned to both the Tiger's Claw and the Kyoto.
