The Rapid Deployment Aeroshell (RDA) is a weapons delivery system.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
The RDA is an ECM-laden atmospheric reentry module designed to fit any combination of four Vehicles from the Trepida & Astrin Grav Vehicle Family.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Use of this system allows the vehicles to be delivered at high speeds to a planetary surface. When the RDA reaches low altitude, it deploys its carried vessels and attempts to return to the orbiting mothership on its grav drive.
