A former Boskonian fighter design based off the Red Tail of Cowboy Bebop fame. This craft never got past the design phase having been dropped in favor of the Swordfish. The data on this craft was stolen along with the rest.
The design retains the 'spaceship in a spaceship' of the Cowboy Bebop version with the cockpit pod being it's own jetisonable gravity drive powered, if unarmed, capsule. The stock life support is good for two days avarage for the complete craft. While the cockpit capulse has half-a-day worth of built in life support system.
Only a handful of these have been produced, mainly for collectors wanting a 'full' set.
== Civilian Mono Racer ==
The civilian version forgoes the weapon layout all together. A bigger engine gives it a higher speed while retaining the armor setup to protect against micrometeorites. The biggest difference is the instrument setup, the civilian version has been streamlined for racing over everything else. Otherwise it retains a lot of the same parts as a stock military version baring after market mods.
Drive Rating: 0.115c

== Class Quirks ==
* ''Got a bounty?'': Playing the opening theme of the Big Shot show from Cowboy Bebop is required for starting the engines.
* ''Hey look, a dime!'': Like all mono racers, the Red Tails are a S/VTOL craft capable of taking off or landing with very little runway. More then seemingly reasonable for a eight ton craft.
== Trivia ==
Both Civilian and military versons can mount grapple 'arms' where the weapons would normally be.
Standard life support is good for two days of straight use.
The cockpit is also it's own self contained capulse complete with a small gravity drive and half-a-day of life support.
==Notes==

A former Boskonian craft design based off the Hammer Head of Cowboy Bebop fame. This craft was in final design phase when the early blueprings and data was stolen along with the others. It was intented to retain the weaponless design of the anime/manga verison, while up armored with a field re-enforced harpoon-like tow chain. Clearly intended for hostile grappling and towing of craft. Unlike the other two stolen designs, the Hammer Head is fully water landing capable.
The design retains the 'spaceship in a spaceship' of the Cowboy Bebop version with the cockpit pod being it's own jetisonable gravity drive powered, if unarmed, capsule. The stock life support is good for two days avarage for the complete craft. While the cockpit capulse has half-a-day worth of built in life support system.
Since the design has started limited production it's seen most of it's popularity servering as a rescue/recovery craft with a modified 'soft' harpoon grapple.

{{Space Craft}}
Two 'proto' write ups of the other two Bebop mono craft. I've got a small story forming in my head involving these and a Boskonian built "The Bebop" craft.
