Pilots are the only available class in First Strike space maps. The backbone combat crew member of both factions in space and aerial engagements, a pilot's primary purpose is to get behind the controls of a vehicle, starfighter or otherwise, as quickly as possible. Pilots also carry survival gear, including a fusion cutter suited for vehicle repairs.

Detailed Gear Rundown[]
Pistol[]
The standard-issue pistols given to Troopers and other grunts are less powerful than those carried by Officers, but still accurate at all ranges and more than capable of downing targets quickly.
Fusion Cutter[]
The Fusion Cutter allows pilots to patch up damaged aircraft.
