'''Commissioned by:''' The Republican Navy, the Republican Intelligence Force<br\>

Comparable to other Light Fighters built by the other Colonies and Star Empires, the F-303 Minute Man is the first in the line of defense against the Republic's enemies.  Built to be sleak, fast, and maneuverable, the F-303 sacrifices cargo space for these qualities, a scant kiloliter.
