Additional Facts

 * The Raptor is 1 0f 5 Strafing Attack style Aircraft. The others are: Wing Drones, Slayer Drone, Thunderbolt and Kondor.
 * The Raptor is by far the fastest moving Air Unit in the Game.
 * Due to its Speed the Raptor can avoid Flak Firing Defenses. This makes Flak Tank and Flak Turret virtually useless against the Raptor.
 * The Raptor is commonly used for Limited Pass Surgical Strikes against targets Like Power Plants or Flak Tanks that are located out of reach of other Aircraft.
 * The Raptor has the longest Range ( 500 ) of any other Aircraft in the game.  However, due to it Strafing Attack style, which in most cases take it directly over the Base Defenses, has this range advantage virtually negated. Range is much more important to Hover Aircraft such as the Cobra, Warhawk or Hellstorm.
 * The Raptor, Level 10+, adds the Napalm Status Effect to its strikes as its Thorium Technology Advantage.
 * All Turrets, Buildings and certain Customized Units are Immune to the Napalm Status Effect.
 * The Raptor's 200 Space Requirement precludes it from being added to an Airfield containing 5 Hellstorms forcing the Player to use Thunderbolts instead.
 * A Level 10 Airfield can hold up to 7 Raptors.
 * Unlocking of the Raptor is required prior to several other Aircraft being Unlocked, These include the Hellstorm, Halcyon, Havoc, Kondor and the Spectre.
