Using a 600-ton hull, the Vargr Packet is a large merchant vessel, a freighter, intended to carry passengers and freight to ports of convenience. It has Jump drive-J, Maneuver drive-D, and Power plant-J, giving a performance of Jump-3 and 1G acceleration. Fuel tankage of 210.0 tons supports the power plant and allows one Jump-3. Adjacent to the bridge is a computer model/2 bis. There are thirty-six staterooms and ten low berths. The ship has six hardpoints and six tons allocated to fire control. Installed on the hardpoints are six single turrets: Two single beam lasers, two single missile racks, and two single sandcasters. There is one ship's vehicle: A 95-ton shuttle. Cargo capacity is 33.0 tons (...supplemented by 49.0 tons capacity in the shuttle, which generally travels loaded). The ship is unstreamlined.
The Vargr Packet requires a crew of nine: pilot, navigator, three engineers, medic, and three stewards.
