The Frazi heavy fighter is a fictional vessel used by Narn Regime in the fictional universe of the Babylon 5 television series and related franchise.
Origin and design
The CGI model was designed and modelled by Foundation Imaging Co-Founder Ron Thornton. The mesh of the fighter's cockpit is based on altered design of the Starfury cockpit.[3]
Depiction
The Frazi-class fighter is depicted as a heavily armored[4][5] type of fighter and it can fly both in space and in a planetary atmosphere.[6] The fighter is piloted by one person located inside a spacious, under-pressurized cockpit.[7][8] Several Frazi-class heavy fighters were capable enough to outmatch even Centauri Sentri fighters during the Narn-Centauri War.[7][9] In the Babylon 5 episode Revelations it is seen that the Frazi fighter is equipped with a computer system that responds to voice commands. It can travel in Hyperspace (the method used in Babylon 5 to cover great distances) but is limited to using jump gates rather than forming jump points.
