F-79J Improved Sigrdrifa/Sigrdrifa Kai

The F-79J is an improved variant of the original F-79 Sigrdrifa starfighter, featured a heavier engine and a strengthened airframe. Although at first glance the J model appears very similar to the first production variant, there are a number of major visual and performance differences between the two aircrafts. The J model was redesigned for long range operations, instead of the usual short ranged interceptor design of the first production model. The new Type 35 Suisei Thermonuclear Turbines delivered a higher thrust, required the modification of the F-79J fuselage to be slightly wider than on the previous types.

The most obvious noticeable difference is that the F-79J shared the same fuselage section with the F-79E Rota interceptor model. The engine combined with the redseigned fuselage provided much better acceleration but worse maneuverability.While its superior to previous models in terms of endurance and energy fighting performance, the type is still inferior to the more modern F-81 Trident and F-82 Super Starfox, however due to delays in F-81 Trident production and the need to improve the short ranged F-79 early production models, the F-79J become the primary starfighter of the Federation throughout the Batarian conflicts, with delivery starting in 2671 to the Terran Federation Space Fleet Aerospace Force, a total of 3,320 units have been manufactured.
