PROS
|
CONS
|
Low target profile makes the Silver-Y very hard to hit even with Laser Turret and missiles.
|
Very slow speed and light hull means you can't last long if you are taking fire.
|
Pick your dogfights wisely. An experienced pilot can take down a well-armed Neo-Tiger with a Silver-Y, but it's a challenge if the pilot's got any intellegence at all.
Keep an eye out for escape routes when running goods -- tunnels and clusters of buildings. Make your runs a little shorter than you would if you were flying a faster Moth.
Make sure to run early if being attacked while flying a Silver-Y. Don't let your shields drop below half before you start your escape. Remember that you're enemy will almost always be in a faster and better armed Moth>
The Silver-Y makes a great trainer for beginners and Aces alike. The beginner can readily learn to dock in hangars and improve basic piloting skills with the Silver-Y's slower speed and pretty good manuverability. Expert pilots can hone thier aiming and evasion skills with the Silver-Y's relatively poor dogfighting performance.
