The World class Transport is a TL–14 Transport.

Description

Using a 3000-ton, TL–14 hull, the World class Transport mounts jump drive-V3, maneuver drive-Q, and power plant-V3, giving a performance of jump-4 and 1G acceleration. Fuel tankage supports a 4 parsec jump, at 270t per parsec, and one month of operations. Attached to the bridge is a Computer Model/4. There are 30 passenger staterooms and no low berths. Cargo capacity is 1200 tons. The ship is unstreamlined. Its overtonnage is compensated for by its power plant.

Carried craft include 3 Light Shuttles for ground contact. The ship requires 18 crew: captain, two pilots, astrogator, sensop, medic, six engineers, three stewards, and three freightmasters. It can carry 24 high passengers, and 6 middle passengers.
