Rumours of the development of a White Star fighter had been circulating for many years before this craft was finally unveiled to a waiting galaxy. It suffered much initial criticism for, oddly, the ISA had elected to follow the heavy fighter approach, a type of craft similar in size to the Drazi Sky Serpent. Such fighters tend to lose all the benefits of agility of a smaller craft and yet lack the durability of heavier vessels. The White Star fighter has a good pedigree,. However, and though it has yet to be used in a major war, its Anla?Shok pilots report superior handling and the ability to give almost any class of ship a bloody nose. If it proves successful on board White Star carriers, it is likely the ISA will eventually replace all the Nials in its fleets with these craft.

This blister pack contains 4 White Star Fighters.

I have to admit these don't thrill m... These are the small-scale White Stars made for the later AoG B5 war-game "reimagined" as fighters.

(WS Fighters do make a brief mostly-undesribed appearance in one B5 novel.)

I really feel they should've redesigned them a bit, perhaps by changing the proportions at least.
