The Starcatcher Fighter is the property of Clan Badger, the main Joyite authority. It is a favorite craft of JEAF commanders. It was developed partially in conjunction with other clans, including the Crane and Sandpanther, during the period before Halla Kaijus took the throne and declared independence from the Kartanin Dominion. Many Starcatchers are manufactured and used by the Jade Empire Armed Forces.
