Power Systems:Two Shinsei/Pratt & Whitney/Rolls Royce FF-2500E fusion plasma turbine engines, total engine output of 427 kN and a total max. power of 675 kN are available with over boost equipped with three-dimensional convergent/divergent vectored exhaust nozzles for enhanced V/STOL performance and maneuverability, as well as hexagonal under fuselage air intakes for use in an atmosphere. (Original Specifications called for Two Shinsei/Pratt & Whitney/Rolls Royce FF-2200B fusion plasma turbine engines, total engine output of 565 kN).
Several additional Pratt & Whitney HMM-6J high-maneuverability vernier thrusters for additional mobility are mounted at key positions along the mecha's hull.
Has three special equipment hardpoint stations for a Shinnakasu Industries/OTEC FB-1000A External Fold Booster; this model is only certified for one way 20-Light Year limit.
YP-YB-19 (2); this is a set of thrusters and armor that attaches to the YF-19's leg/engine nacelle that facilitates maneuvering in space. Equipped with a conformal fuel tank, and two vernier thrusters as well as chaff and flare dispensers.
YP-YP-19 (2); these mount to the top of the fighter just above the main engines/shoulders, and contains an additional conformal fuel tank.
Weapons Systems:[All] Mauser REB-30G Anti-Aircraft Laser Cannon (1); firing 3.6mj every second; these cannons are mounted to the top of the head/turret.
[YF-19-1] Mauser REB-20G Converging Beam Cannons (2); mounted in the wing roots, can fire 2.5 mJ every second.
Mauser REB-23 Converging Beam Cannons (2); mounted in the wing roots, can fire 3.0 mJ every second. (Prototype 2).
Internal Weapons Pallets Mounted In The Legs (2); can carry one of the following payloads-
Can carry one B-7 BMM-24 Little Rock missile launch pallet per leg for a total of forty eight missiles.
Or Can carry one B-19 Weapon Pallet carrying chaff dispenser and four hardpoints for missiles.
4 Wingmounted Hardpoint capable of carrying-
1 MER (Multiple Ejector Rack) for two Multi-Purpose Tunguska missiles.
or 1 MER for three Medium Range Marauder air-to-ground missiles.
or 1 RMS-4 "Gabriel" Nuclear Stand-off missile.
or 1 (Long Range) Revenant missile.
or 1 (Long Range) Hardball cluster missile.
or 1 MM-20 missile container holding 20 Hedgerow Missiles.
Hughes GU-15 55mm three barreled smoothbore rotary gun pod (1); has a 600 round capacity. Cannon fires APFSDS (Armor Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot) and HESH-I (High Explosive Squash Head-Incendiary) rounds at 800 rounds/minute. Can fire in all modes- usually mounted on centerline hardpoint, or in the Battroid's/Guardian's hand.
Anti-Projectile Shield (Back mounted in fighter mode, and arm mounted in Battroid mode).
Howard Fixed PBS-03F Fighter Mounted Pinpoint Barrier System.
Optional Weapons Systems:YF-HW-01; Is a special weapons unit that was initially designed and built for the VF-19 but was only tested during the beginning phases of the Excalibur project it is capable of destroying a Monster Destroid. The main reason behind the dropping of the weapons systems is that it tended to overload and blow up the mecha using it.
The weapons package includes-
OTEC FC-85-X experimental plasma cannon capable of firing up to six blasts per minute. Each blast has a maximum yield equivalent to 0.06 kT. The cannon is a line-of-sight weapon that can fire out to a maximum range of 15 km, in clear weather on Earth and Earth-like planets, depending on the surrounding terrain. These mounts on the right arm of the mecha just past the manipulator hand.
Electronic/Sensor Systems:UWB phased array with spherical coverage, for various scan/track, battlefield surveillance and counter battery options.
Multi-band digital camera system, for medium range all attitude infra-red imaging, optical and ultra-violet band detection and tracking.
Multi-frequency laser ranger and designator.
Radar Warning Receiver (RWR)
Infra-red Warning Receiver (IRWR)
Active sensor jammer
Chaff and flare dispenser
