Given Faye's huge debts, it a wonder where she got the cash to get the Redtail. Not only that but maintenance especially of its weapons, given her habit of blasting away without a care. The Redtail, like the Hammerhead, is VTOL(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) capable unlike the Swordfish II which gives it an edge in maneuvering; parking is a breeze cause it can fit in tight corners and it doesn't need a runway to take-off. Still, Faye's piloting skills can't match Spike's as evidenced by several of their encounters. ^_^ The Redtail is the most heavily armed among the Bebop gang's ships. Its twin Gatlings are fearsome and the rotary missile launchers can take infra-red guided and illumination missiles among others. In session 7, the Redtail exchanged the weapon pods with twin 'fork' hands. Their function seem to be limited to utility only. Unlike the Swordfish II and Hammerhead, the Redtail is incapable of landing on water.
