No. Heavy fighters are now available for NAC, ESU, NSL, FSE and Kra'vak.

The new UNSC SGII figures are in(quote from catalogue) "full hardsuits, 
effectively light power armour, bit much less bulky than the PA units of

the NAC, NSL etc. The standard arm is the Ifantry Plasma Weapon(IPW) 80 
with the SPW 82 RF plasma gun carried as a support weapon."

>The Star Tigers are GF-006 95p for 6.

With the takeover of CMD by GZG, the pricing policy on all fighters (in
the 
UK) is now: standard fighters 95p for 12, heavy fighters 95p for 6.

>I'm not sure if there are any other UN ships available yet.

No, not yet. See my other post.
