This is a case where you need to determine what type of carrier they <br clear="none">
are. Looking at the Superhawk:<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
- It has 8 fighters, that's more than two, so it's not a casual carrier <br clear="none">
(J4.62).<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
- It has more than six fighters, so it's not a hybrid carrier (S8.322). <br clear="none">
That's a shame: I wanted it to fit here.<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
- There is no flavor text or mention in other sources that claims it was <br clear="none">
intended for a specific role. The examples in (J4.62), the text of <br clear="none">
(R9.R4), or the flavor text of (R4.128) are examples of countervailing <br clear="none">
"other sources".<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
- It has an escort table and the "V" note in the MSC. That pretty much <br clear="none">
nails it as a "true" carrier without the others to fall back on.<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
So the Superhawk needs escorts.<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
Some of the other heavy hawks (R4.N3) include the Killerhawk, Novahawk, <br clear="none">
and the Royalhawk, which have no fighters. This suggests that it was not <br clear="none">
an attempt to create a hull classification that traditionally carriers <br clear="none">
fighters simply for the firepower benefit (unlike the Farhawks.) <br clear="none">
However, the Thunderhawk,Superhawk-N (the "Sunhawk"), and the <br clear="none">
Superhawk-B are obviously intended as full carriers.<br clear="none">
