The Adamant class Armored Vault Boat is a paramilitary secure transport smallcraft.
Description[edit]
Designed for the secure transport of valuables between banks as well as between banks and bank starships, the Adamant class Armored Vault Boat is a 25 dTon smallcraft capable of shrugging off antiship weaponry and fitting up to 4 tons of cargo inside its reinforced vault. The boat is ridiculously well armored, with over a third of its volume made up of solid crystaliron.
The Adamant class Armored Vault Boat comes with many feature packages to comply with the many differing local planetary regulations that restrict the operation of spacecraft within urban areas. Of them, the Unoffensive Package is the most popular, able to operate (with the right permits) in even high law level polities. It forgoes the Standard Package's beam laser and advanced sensors for a point defense laser and basic non-penetrative sensors, which frees up 2.5 tons of space for additional (but less secure) storage or seating for more guards. Because of its less restricted nature, lower cost, and extra space, the Unoffensive Package has become the default configuration.
Due to not wanting to design multiple reactors for the boat, its power plant is large enough to run the most powerful weapon and sensor packages on offer.
Whilst the main buyers of such boats are, of course, banks, Adamant class Armored Vault Boats are operated by many types of companies and even wealthy individuals, transporting jewels, advanced prototypes, ancient artifacts, top secret data sticks, and more. After all, transporting an inert but priceless relic of the Ancients is operationally not much different from transporting bank records worth gigacredits.
