Design Notes

Designed using New Traveller: Vehicle Handbook with hull at Cr2600/Space as these rules have no unpowered aircraft. (1/30th of the cost of of heavy powered version appears to be consistent with other unpowered vehicle types)

The objective was to have a cheap re-entry vehicle with some survivability. The majority of the cost is using the auxiliary thruster and the good quality navigation software. A version using a parachute and pilot's eyes as sensor/navigation would be much cheaper (about Cr25,000 cheaper), but restricted to a much smaller variety of targets.
