The Interface Lander is a Transport bigcraft.

Description (Specifications)

The Interface Lander is designed to ferry cargo and fuel between a world’s surface and close orbit. It is a common in-system transport vessel within the Distant Fringe and is frequently carried as a subcraft aboard large commercial vessels. Similar designs have been in use from the time the Distant Fringe was first settled.

  • The vessel is a TL-9 design.
