The Armored Vault class Boat is a paramilitary secure transport smallcraft.

Description

Designed for the secure transport of valuables between banks as well as between banks and bank starships, the Adamant Armored Bank Transport is a 25 dTon smallcraft capable of shrugging off antiship weaponry. It can fit up to 4 tons of cargo inside its reinforced vault.

Whilst the main buyers of such vehicles are, of course, banks, Adamant Armored Bank Transports are operated by many companies and even wealthy individuals, transporting jewels, advanced prototypes, ancient artifacts, top secret data sticks, and more. After all, transporting an Ancients relic that is inert but priceless is operationally not much different from transporting bank records worth gigacredits.

The Adamant Armored Bank Transport comes with many feature packages to comply with differing local (planetary) regulations that often restrict the operation of spacecraft within urban areas. The Unoffensive Package is the most popular, able to operate freely 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 storage or seating for more guards. Due to its less restricted nature, lower cost, and extra space, the Unoffensive Package has become the default.
