The Denuli class Hunting Launch is a TL–12 Hunting Launch, designed for working with the Leaping Snowcat class Safari Ship.

Description

In order to provide the ship's crew of a Leaping Snowcat class Safari Ship with additional mobility and safety, a 20-ton hunting launch is carried in a special slip along the keel of the ship. This standard design small craft is divided into three basic compartments-bridge, capture tank, and drives. The drives for the launch make it capable of 1-G acceleration. It carries one ton of fuel.

The capture tank is a cargo compartment specially fitted out for carrying trophies from the hunt. Trophies and captures can be transferred to the main capture tanks through specially fitted doors in the launch and the safari ship.

The bridge has couches for six persons, but the craft can be operated by one person. Normally, the launch is operated by two persons for redundancy and safety. There is no computer.
