“When flying a Splicer 2000 remember, run in fire your load then turn and around and get the Sheol out of there. Just because you have guns doesn’t make you a dogfighter,” Commander Velick Trane shortly before his death.

The Splicer 2000 Heavy Fighter/Interceptor came into service when the need for a long-range interceptor became increasingly apparent to the UCSB military high commanders.  The S.2000 is the fastest accelerating fighter in UCSB frontline service, but that speed comes at the cost of maneuverability.  Operational doctrine dictates that a Splicer 2000 make a high speed run towards the enemy fleet, engage with long and short range missiles, preferably while remaining sensor passive, then evade the enemy and return home.  Knowing that close in engagements could still occur, the S.2000 was equipped with short range cannons and missiles as well for self defence.  As a fleet defense interceptor Splicer 2000 crews spend the majority of their flights at key points around the battlegroup on watch for enemy craft.
