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

Shadow the Hedgehog's Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptor is a customized Eta 2-Actis class light interceptor belonging to Shadow the Hedgehog. It replaced his original fighter, a modified A-Wing, after that ship was used to ram the [i]Providence[/i] Class cruiser Cobalt Cobra in the 6th Battle of Angel Island. It is armed with two moderate laser cannons, two small heavy repeating lasers in place of the ion cannons, a concussion missile launcher, and a disruptor rifle hard-wired to the control systems. For protection it was fitted with a light shield generator. A class 1.0 hyperdrive specially constructed to fit the fighter allowed for hyperspace transit. Powering the ship was a Chaos Drive of the type normally used to power G.U.N. medium tanks.

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.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.

Shadow elected to have the ion cannons replaced with heavy repeating lasers, and to have a concussion missile launcher added. In secret, he asked Anakin to hard-wire a disruptor rifle to the ship's control system for emergency use. Shadow gave the fighter its first combat test soon after. He piloted it to lead a task force to the Minos Cluster to help out an existing battle group. Shadow destroyed several droid tri-fighters and a Recusant-class ship, allowing the beleaguered force of Acclamator-class assault ships to break through the U.E.V. perimeter.

Behind the scenes
This article is part of the Collided Worlds saga which differs wildly from the official Star Wars story after 28 ABY.A massive Chaos Control performed by Shadow, Tikal, Sonic, Silver, and Blaze in their Super Forms to return the Yuuzahn Vong to their home planet, restore that planet, and repair all the damage they had done also restored billions of other lives, including a great many Jedi who had perished from 32 BBY to 5 ABY. Unfortunately, heroes and villains alike were revived. Palpatine is alive once more, much to the chagrin of the majority of the universe.
