The UEES Banshee was an Idris-class Frigate formerly in service to the 地球聯合帝國海軍. She was decommissioned some time before 2951, and later destroyed for entertainment purposes.[1]
The vessel was likely named for the 女妖星系, in keeping with the tradition of naming UEEN Idris-class vessels after systems of the 地球聯合帝國.
Destruction
After decommissioning, the Banshee was used by the show Whitley's Guide to demonstrate the capabilities of the 戰神 離子光 and 戰神 地獄火 Starfighters from 十字軍工業, as part of their coverage of Intergalactic Aerospace Expo 2951.[1]
Some graphics shown within the segment (see image below) refer to the vessel as the UEES McCleary. This is a reference to former host Jax McCleary, who had quit hosting the show following the previous episode.[2] The same graphics use a model of the UEES Stanton to represent the ship.
During the segment filmed in a classified location, Jimmy fired a number of small arms at the derelict ship, culminating in a round from a 新星 tank. He then destroyed the ship with two blasts from an 戰神 離子光 main weapon. He almost collided with part of the wreckage, before being saved by former host Jax McCleary, who piloted an 戰神 地獄火.
