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.
