== Summary ==<br />
The distinction for the longest serving Star Force aerospacecraft is bequeathed unto the venerated '''USFI ''Star Cruiser II''''', launched in 2504 as the second-generation B-215b and finally retired ten years later as the fourth-generation B-415b in 2514, when the replacement [[USFI Star Cruiser III|B-515c ''Star Cruiser III'']] was launched.<br />
<br />
Building on the profile of the first [[USFI Star Cruiser I|Star Cruiser]], the '''''Cruiser II''''' increased both forward armament and its bomb payload, adding another pair of MP1200 phasers, enlarging the torpedo launcher, relocating bomb racks to the aft, and adding two rocket racks off the fuselage. While far from unrivaled in terms of forward firepower (the behemothic [[TSI Star Thunderbolt XL|Thunderbolt XL]], [[USFI Star Phantom|Phantom]], [[USFI Spitfire I|Spitfire I]], and [[USFI Neptune|Neptune]] outnumber it in pure gun counts), the '''''Cruiser'''''<nowiki/>'s comparatively light airframe and lean profile lend it increased speed and agility, leading to increased survivability and ultimately greater effectiveness as a gun platform. The '''''Cruiser''''' is capable of dogfighting.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== ''Star Cruiser II Improved'' ===<br />
Shortly after its launch, design improvements penned by Federation Captain [[Spitfire Mad]] were adapted to the ''Cruiser II''<nowiki/>'s original design. Henceforward, the two model variants were known as the "Original" and the "Improved", the latter of which persevered for the rest of the Cruiser's illustrious service. The landing gear improvements in particular would be adapted to nearly all USFI aerospacecraft going forward, until the standardization of repulsorlifts.<br />
