Stork

Stork is an Alliance satellite layer in Starlancer.

Description
The Stork is a dual-purpose satellite and minelayer. Used extensively to lay early listening and defense satellites along the front-line quadrants, the Stork provides the Alliance with its eyes and ears, helping the military to deploy its forces with great accuracy and giving early warning against Coalition attacks.

The defense satellites and mines have a very low radar signature making them almost invisible to the Coalition. However, there is growing concern that the spacelanes will be plagued by these devices for years after the war is finished.

 * Mission 4: A baby-sitting mission and the first truly problematic one, as the Storks are extremely vulnerable to fighters and are swarmed by Coalition attackers.
