Shadow the Hedgehog's Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptor

Sonic the Hedgehog's Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptor is a customized Eta 2-Actis class light interceptor belonging to Sonic the Hedgehog. It replaced his modified A-Wing Blue Dart, after that ship was used to ram the Providence-class cruiser Cobalt Cobra in the 6th Battle of Angel Island. It is armed with two moderate laser cannons, and two small repeating lasers in place of the ion cannons. For protection it is fitted with a light shield generator. A class 1.0 hyperdrive specially constructed to fit the fighter allows for hyperspace transit. Powering the ship is a Chaos Drive of the type normally used to power G.U.N. medium tanks. The design painted on the ship is flashy, meant to convey Sonic's overall "coolness."

History
Sonic and Shadow were left without starfighters when they used their RZ-1 A-wing interceptors to ram Metal Sonic's flagship,the Cobalt Cobra at the 6th Battle of Angel Island.This forced him to retreat or else risk losing the vessel and its precious databanks to the heroes.After the battle was over,Sonic and Shadow walked through row upon row of fighters looking for a new choice of ship. They settled upon Eta-2 Actis class light interceptors. Anakin Skywalker and Miles "Tails" Prower labored for a week to customize the fighters.

Sonic had the ion cannons replaced with repeating lasers, a fairly common modification to Eta-2 Actis-class interceptors. The fighter also recieved light shields and a hyperdrive. Sonic then asked Anakin to tweak the fighter's speed and maneuvering capabilities. In battle, Sonic made use not only of the weapons, but of the maneuvering systems and speed, tricking enemy fighters into colliding with eachother or with enemy capital ships.
