Packet Ship
A specialised type of the small Class 3000 Merchant Starship optimised for hi-g acceleration, up to 2g. Its primary role is delivery of urgent stores, where reducing the journey time between the M25 and the colony world by several days is critical.
The structural re-inforcement, the much larger power plant, thrusters, and reaction mass store means that crew and cargo space are much more limited than on a normal Class 3000.
Minimum operating crew: 8
Spare Occupancy: 0
Cargo Capacity: 10 Cargo Pod
Approximate cost new: 18m credits
There is no armed version.
