The Tyr is an extremely tough Terran destroyer, and provides the heavy gun platform for the ATF. It has more weapon slots than any other vessel in the game except the ATF's own Valhalla, but prior to Albion Prelude patch 3.0, its inadequate cargo bay meant it could not mount the powerful loadout that is expected from a ship of its prestige. As of the Shady Business patch, a larger cargo bay means the Tyr can mount full batteries of its most powerful weapons.
