| I think one given two bumps over a fortnight then the person is assumed to not have comment (or no comment they feel is relevant)? Just to avoid these little lingerers when we're mostly done.

| I'm about ready to wrap this up, since it's been lingering.
I will note that the Tikiar-class has a top speed of 105 MGLT, which, considering your stipulation on craft exceeding 100 MGLT, I find odd. I, however, don't see an issue with small fighters up to 110 MGLT. Just bear this in mind in future requests, please.
If you have nothing else to add, I will approve?

| It as standard goes 90 MGLT
It can go at 100 MGLT for 12 hours total before a replacement of engines is required
It can go at 105 MGLT for circa 45 minutes until the engines blow up.
The Tikiar has a compelling reason in that it has zero safety standards and is essentially fitted with unsafe rocket engines alongside its regular drives so can go a little faster. If you want your craft to be able to go 110 MGLT but blow up after 25 minutes that fast I am bueno with it.
It's also as light as possible and has a hull you could probably blast apart with a laser pen. It's canopy is literally made of a plastic compound...
It has the speed because it compromises on other things. If you want to do similar I'll vote in favour.

| It doesn't need alteration. I was just making a note I found interesting. Well, since ole' Hax needs this to get on with some things.
Consider this Approved.

| The now famous quote from the Essential Atlas concerning the Senex-Juvex worlds—"the Houses realized they had fallen behind the wider galaxy technologically"—presumably bears upon this:
Quote Bane_Hax (  ) Maximum Grade AI Tracking Scanner Turret, improves the ships accuracy in the forward quarter hugely, making it hit much more often, especially at the longer ranges where the sophisticated computer can work out where the ship will be and give you firing solutions along those paths.
And also this:
Quote Bane_Hax ( ) Anti-boarding traps in much of the ship coordinated by a purpose built system, deflector shield reinforcement on doors, reserve layers to blast doors so if one is burned through and you step through it, the door will slide down and seal you inside, flooding conduits with plasma, pop up and drop down blaster and ion autoguns, and also to modify gravity not in the inhumane extent (instant pancaking) but just to make borders sick in the areas theyre in, like really really sick, plus naturally it would vent compartments with borders into space. The system would be hardwired to continue killing until given a deactivation code, so you can abandon ship and it will just keep killing anyone it identifies as non crew until its turned off.
For the most part, your request is consistent with a pariah state. But these two items seem out of place to me. The anti-boarding traps are fine, but I'd rather see them actually controlled by an individual than by a sophisticated shipboard system. And I can't see myself approving a superior tracking suite for any Senex-made ships. Unless you have a case to make for it?
Quote Bane_Hax ( ) 2x Long-range heavy ion cannons
Long range or heavy, but let's please not do both.
There's only one other thing I'm not clear on. It says in your request that the Tikiar Mk. 1 is "made by House Hax," though the image seems to imply it's made by the Mekuun Corporation, which makes Tikiars. Whichever the case may be, can you resolve briefly what role the Mekuun Corporation has or doesn't have in the apparent use of its product name, if not its actual product?
It's possible the Mekuun Corporation is owned by House Hax. All we know about it is that it makes Tikiars, which are in use by the Senex-Juvex in Cloak of Deception, and that it collaborated on Republic designs during the Clone Wars. We have no record of the Senex-Juvex worlds in the Clone Wars, however. Not knowing what side they were on, it's hard to say conclusively if the Mekuun Corporation is or isn't Hax-owned. But if not, we'd need an explanation for how a Republic-friendly company is selling starfighters to the Senex-Juvex worlds in seeming violation of the sanctions. (The disclaimers on your Tikiar image notwithstanding).

| Controlled by an Individual is fine. I'd like to note that they've got the Dreadnaught-class by the Asmeru incident so having ancient HKD prototypes hardly seems beyond them.
AI Scanner - A ships computer as you'd see in a Freighter rigged up to a Sensor Array to give it a more powerful and intelligent targeting ability, hardly beyond the ghetto rigging of those in need.
On the Long Range Heavy Ion Cannons, thats derived from the parent ship the Munificent... Only reason theyre there is because its on the Munificent.
Perhaps House Hax is just licensed to produce it's own variants of the Tikiar where it's able to get the material together? They don't own the design or understand the workings of it to a great extent, they just produce the simple parts and assemble. The sale could be grandfathered in as predating the sanctions (since Vandron has Tikiars at Asmeru) or just be via a Proxy vendor in a Non-Republic system...

| Please reflect all changes in the main request.
I agree with Jace on the tracking turret and the anti-boarding traps needing to be controlled by an individual. Senex-Juvex is meant to be technologically inferior.
Also, since this isn't actually a Munificent, either long range or heavy.
Quote Jace_Varitek ( ) Whichever the case may be, can you resolve briefly what role the Mekuun Corporation has or doesn't have in the apparent use of its product name, if not its actual product?
Be so kind as to clarify that much, if you would. I don't mind House Hax being licensed to produce Tikiars,
Quote Jace_Varitek ( ) But if not, we'd need an explanation for how a Republic-friendly company is selling starfighters to the Senex-Juvex worlds in seeming violation of the sanctions
And we do need an answer here.

| We can just say that parts are imported via a neutral party as an indirect deal, with the fighters being produced up to the more dangerous local specifications within the Senex Juvex.
