I can only see one base design for the Reaver Space Superiority Fighter: a Star Wars X-Wing.
It has the pointed nose that can be armoured into a hull-ram; it's got weapons mounts on the ends of the wings, which means you can't take out all the weapons in one shot; most importantly, it looks like a Warsie ship, which most Fen would expect to see out "on maneuvers"...
It wouldn't look exactly like an X-Wing, but the camoflague aspect alone makes the design worthwhile from a Reaver point of view.
Edit: As for where the story's set, I thought "Earth". It's got the manufacturing base, and many Fen have a huge mental blind-spot when it comes to the mother world...
