Description / Specifications
The Shuttle is primarily designed to transport cargo. Similar designs have been in use from the time the Distant Fringe was first settled.
- The vessel is a TL-7 design.
Hull
The Shuttle is constructed using a 90-dTon hull built in a generally cone-shaped configuration. The hull is fully streamlined.
- Individual sections of the ship are divided by bulkhead walls. Sections of the ship can be isolated in the event of an emergency.
- The vessel is not fitted with artificial gravity equipment. All accessible sections of the hull have life support.
- A TL 8 variant of the Shuttle is available. It is effectively identical but the hull includes internal grav plates and inertial compensators.
Engineering
The vessel mounts a maneuver-2 drive and a power plant 2, giving performance of 2G acceleration. The ship has an agility rating of 2. There is fuel tankage of 1.8 dTons, giving the power plant 4 weeks duration.
Main Section
The vessel is equipped with a computer model/1 and a pilot’s acceleration couch. There are four additional passenger acceleration couches and a small stateroom. Cargo capacity amounts to 70 dTons.
- The vessel is fitted with communications equipment, a basic sensor array, and an avionics suite.
Crew
The Shuttle requires 1 crew: a pilot.
Weapons
The ship has one triple sandcaster turret.
Subcraft
None.
Cost
The basic cost of the vessel is MCr35.925.
- The ship is a standard design. Detailed architectural plans are widely available and no design fee is chargeable.
- If multiple examples of the design are ordered all of the ships in the production run qualify for a 20% discount, which reduces their price to MCr28.740.
History / Background
A basic low-tech design used throughout the Distant Fringe. The design is representative and a large number of variants exist, particularly with regard to the allotted weapons systems, onboard electronics, and the fit out of internal spaces.
