The Raktaj is designed to be able to withstand punishment, and deal it out just as effectively. Due to it's lack of speed, the shields have been pumped up to a small starship's standards. It is larger than the average fighter, and a lot of this space is taken up by the shield generators and internal Torpedo magazines.

In use on this fighter/bomber is the Sonic Resonator Device, or SRD. This device is launched at a starship, to a predetermined point on it's hull (most typically the bridge or near main engineering). It uses shield disruption technology gained from Borg drones to eat a temporary hole in the shielding of the vessel, to allow it to pass. Unfortunately, this technology only allows for one use. As soon as it is firmly attached to the hull of said vessel, it begins transmitting intense sonic waves through the hull of the ship, and thus into the air, creating a high-pitched squealing sound, incapacitating much of the crew.
