Cityscape Information

The Retaliator is the fourth X-COM designed hybrid aircraft. It is the mid-weight of the X-COM fighter aircraft. With the right armament and equipment, this aircraft is very formidable in combat.

The Retaliator has two large 2×4 shaped weapon hard points on the sides, and one 2×3 front weapon. The equipment space comparable to a Hawk Air Warrior with a capacity of 4×4 equipment slots.

The three large weapon hard points allow Retaliators to arm a host of powerful weapons including the Medium Disruptor Beam and the Disruptor Bomb Launcher. With enough of these, it's not uncommon for a small wing of Retaliators to shoot down capital class UFOs while taking minimal damage in return.

X-Com must research UFO type 6 (the Assault Ship) in order to research the Retaliator.
