Design Notes

  • 85t TL10 drive (2550 thrust)
  • TL10 reinforced hull (1275t), TL10 armour (500t), total mass 1775t
  • 100t fuel
  • Cargo, 500t
  • TL10 Jump-2 drive, 85t
  • 80t spare for other stuff.

Weapons

Surface available: 23

  • 4 light turrets, unspecified loadout (4t, 12 SA)

Variants

  • Stripped down variant with most of the armour removed. Drops Health by 1 (no change to mass or soak), reduces armour to +25 (100t), but increases thrust to 1.8g. Very extreme version removes all armour, and gives a thrust of 2g.
