The VUX Intruder is both incredibly slow and hard to turn, but it compensates for this by utilizing limpet mines to slow down enemy vessels.

The Intruder is fitted with a unique warp system that enables it to warp in fairly close to an enemy ship. With luck, an Intruder can inflict serious damage on the other ship before it manages to get away.

Intruders are armed with a gigawatt laser that can slice through any ship in a matter of seconds.

The VUX's limpet mines home in on an enemy ship and stick to its hull, slowing it down. One or two mines will not greatly affect a ship's speed, but more than that will slow it down to the point where an Intruder can run circles around it.

A favorite tactic of veteran VUX pilots is to gravity whip as soon as possible, then start dropping limpets when they fly past the enemy.
