''Yimin Jiti 3T Air/Raft, [[TL-11]]:'' The [[vehicle]] is unarmored with the minimum required [[crystaliron]] chassis. The vehicle is unsealed, without life support and open-topped. [[Passenger]]s leaving from orbiting ships must wear [[vacuum suit]]s to survive the journey. The vehicle is so light that the tiny 1m3 [[fusion power plant]] still pushes it to very high, some would say unsafe speeds. Because they are so light for their size they are very sensitive to high winds, flights in foul weather in dense planetary atmospheres can be very dangerous. These vehicles are shipped from the factory with NO installed [[electronic]]s. If you want to call someone to complain about this, I hope you brought your own [[radio]]. The [[Yimin Jiti]] admire this dedication to minimalism. Once the standard [[Air/Raft]] requirements of four passengers and four [[ton]]s of [[cargo]] were met, all other available space was packed with fuel. Cheaper [[power plant]]s are available but the fusion reactor can go anywhere and is expensive yet environmentally independent.

These [[Air/Raft]]s require a single driver and can carry three seated passengers. They can carry four metric tons of cargo and are nicknamed flatbeds because of their low profile and shape. They are frequently upgraded and modified to fulfill a variety of roles. Eighty percent of their cost is from the 2 MW fusion power plant and seventy-seven percent of their volume is fuel for that reactor, which provides a freakishly long endurance.
