| As the smallest bomber in the GTA fleet, the Athena is often mistaken for a fighter. While its good manoeuvrability allows it to dogfight enemy craft, its true strength lies in its deployment of light bombs. Athenas equipped with Stilettos or other weapons and used in conjunction with heavier bombers can prove to be a deadly force. Also because of its speed and handling abilities, it can often serve a dual role in disabling the target ship and screening friendly bombers against enemy fighters. |
