Tackle Gunships are an unofficial subclass of Gunships which function as larger Starfighters with the ability to mount Disruptors.

Tackle Gunships are equivalent to Tech-1 Starfighters with significantly less Shield health, and are as such countered by anti-Subcapital Starships, such as full size Gunships, Corvettes, and Stasis Corvettes.

History

They were largely popularized by their use by Yodabird19. However, they saw use before then, such as Imperial Nova's Anaconda.

In late 2025, Gravity Wells were given minimum block counts. This killed the Tackle Gunship subclass until the Dominion Update, which introduced Disruptors. Still, Tackle Gunships are rarely used due to the introduction of the Scrambler, which acts as a tech-2 Starfighter with a Disruptor, and Tech-2 Capital Starships, which have 2 Jump Strength.
