-Although Isis Interstellar's Dominatrix is a mainstay of the SOAR's vessels, concerns were raised regarding the external fitting of the underwing cannons; during several missions, damage to the additional weaponry has reduced the potency of the vessels' firepower. To this end, the SOAR approached Isis Interstellar and requested a vessel of comparable size and performance as the Dominatrix but with more secure armament. Following an intense design phase, the Diamondback ~ named after the distinctive patterning of the dorsal plating ~ was subjected to rigorous space trials.

Following an intense design phase, the Diamondback ~ named after the distinctive patterning of the dorsal plating ~ was subjected to rigorous space trials.
 The decision to incorporate the guns inside the wing structure made them all but impervious to incoming fire, however this design raised problems of its own, in that the cool-down operation of the weapons was severely compromised ~ use of additional [[Military Lasers]] was impossible. After long discussion with the 138th, a compromise was agreed upon; the two additional Military Lasers of the Dominatrix were replaced with four Pulse Lasers on the Diamondback. Although not delivering as much instantaneous killing power, the combined impact of the four Pulse Lasers along with the nose-mounted Military Laser delivers enough of an onslaught to be a major problem for most vessels.

-The Purgatori model has a lower power rating but the advanced cooling system uses less power, allowuing for a marginally higher recharge rate. The size of this new equipment means that the ship can only carry 6 missiles, but given the higher laser firepower this is acceptable to the SOAR.

-A civilian version of the ship has just been made available to the public. As per current GalCop legislation, multiple cannons are illegal on civilian ships, but Isis Interstellar believes the performance of the vessel means that the experienced combateer should not be disadvantaged by this. The removal of the weaponry and associated cooling and power devices means that the civilian Diamondback is capable of carrying 18 tons of cargo. The Purgatori variant is currently not for sale to the public.

-Following the tremendous impact of the [[Vampire - Dominatrix|Dominatrix]], both as a military vessel on the Naval front lines and as a police vessel in [[GalCop]]'s space lanes, Isis Interstellar was commissioned to design another Tactical Strike Fighter for the [[Galactic Navy|Navy]]. This vessel was to be used exclusively by the 138th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Planetary & Interstellar), "Damage Inc.", based on the Tactical Assault Carrier, USS Orion. The 138th are the Navy's secretive special forces, carrying out covert (and not-so-covert) operations. Amongst their more public endeavours are the total annihilation of a [[Piracy|pirate]]-occupied [[Coriolis station (Oolite)|Coriolis station]] in Atmala, and the much-celebrated "Tanhauser Gate" battle last year, when a full-scale [[Thargoids|Thargoid]] fleet jumped into [[Lavebe]] while the majority of our Naval forces were engaged in Witchspace. A highly populated area, the planet was a prime target and although one [[Dodo station (Oolite)|Dodec station]] was destroyed and another extensively damaged, the timely arrival by Damage Inc. ~ who purely by chance were on manoeuvres nearby ~ saved the day. Although heavily outnumbered, the 138th were able to obliterate much of the attack fleet before the remaining ships retreated. The Dominatrix's abilities were singled out by the Navy as a major contributing factor to the victory, a fact that Isis Interstellar is very proud of.

-The Diamondback has more power than the Dominatrix, but has a slower recharge rate as more of the energy has to be diverted to the weapons cooling plants. This equipment fills much of the deceptively spacious interior of the vessel, as does a bespoke [[Missile|missile]] system that holds 8 missiles on a rotating delivery system. At the direction of the military, a token amount of [[Cargo Container (Oolite)|cargo]] space has been incorporated for the recovery of [[escape capsules]] in combat.

-The Diamondback's performance is approximately comparable to her big sister, however improvements to the Toyota engines mean that she has a higher top speed. [[Heat shielding]] is incorporated into the armoured skin, making the vessel fully atmospheric-capable; the FSW geometry and large tail planes ensure a smooth and stable flight with enhanced handling in all atmospheres. An improved intake design has allowed for improved atmospheric engine performance without the need for turbines as per the Dominatrix, thus cutting down on noise and power drain.
