The EID-Hammer represents the Imperial Republic's doctrine of "Overwhelming Precision" — combining massive ordnance payloads with formidable survivability.
Designed for penetrating deep into fortified enemy sectors, the Hammer carries devastating missile and torpedo loads, supported by an array of heavy lasers and ion cannons for both offense and defense. Its dual-crew cockpit provides both piloting and dedicated weapons officer functionality.
Despite its heavy armor and formidable shielding, the Hammer retains reasonable sublight speed for a bomber and is fully capable of atmospheric reentry and planetary assault operations.
The Hammer is often deployed in small, elite wings tasked with crippling capital ships, planetary defenses, and strategic space infrastructure.
