The Bearcat Heavy Fighter is a fictional starfighter found in the Wing Commander universe. Its first and only appearance was in Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom. About In the fictional Wing Commander universe, the Bearcat Heavy Fighter was a Terran Confederation heavy fighter during the Black Lance conspiracy in 2673. In Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom, Christopher Blair and several other Border World pilots (several defected Confed pilots) managed to capture several of these prototype heavy fighters from a Confederation factory. It is unknown whether or not these fighters were ever mass-produced, as they were never seen again after Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom. The fighter was well equipped with four light tachyon cannons and had a missile payload that included four Image Recognition and four Heat-seeker missiles. The ship came equipped with a limited AATS (Advanced Auto-Tracking System) allowing the guns to track the ITTS system independently. It was not as efficient as the AATS on other advanced fighters such as the Excalibur and Dragon. The Bearcat was the fastest ship in the Wing Commander history. Its max velocity could be reached at 1550 kps. It was highly maneuverable, able to keep up with even the most agile adversaries. With all of these features included in this fighter, the Bearcat was a probably the finest Medium fighter in Wing Commander history. It is a ship that should not be underestimated. See Also
