Transhuman Space AKV's

Subject: Transhuman Space AKV's


One of the weapons systems in Transhuman Space is the Autonomous Kill
Vehicle (AKV) - Think of this as a fighter controlled by an onboard
sapient AI. An AKV is essentially a fighter that can if it wishes
convert itself into a missile if it decides the target is worth it.
Given that only small numbers of AKV's are carried (6 is a lot) and they
seem to be deployed before combat and recovered after it the best way to
model them might be as separate small craft that ram rather than as
fighters.

Does anyone have any ideas on a good way to model this or cost it?
