Designation (given by manufacturer): CC - CAV1MIII826K (Cargo Carrier/Logistical unit, Craft, Version 1, Mk IV, $826 K)Awaiting official UG designation
Armaments: (In this case, equipment) 10 Plasma Beam Emitters
Background Info: The original/base ship was a small yet powerful laser - based mining ship, specifically used for strip mining the top layer of rock in asteroid mining. Designers and manufacturer of the ship were given a contract by (trusted) paramilitary forces to redesign the ship. The finished product is a Craft classification mining ship with powerful lasers and heavy shielding. the design has undergone much modernization, including drone cores (for better energy logistics), antigravs and powerful thrusters. The ship is experimental, merely a prototype, a proof of concept. The ship is unofficially know as "The Spade" by it's crews for it's overall shape and mining capabilities
Role: Logistical. The ship uses short range equipment/weaponry and lack of flank and rear shielding makes it unsuitable for combat, neither does the arrangement of thrusters.
Planned use in UG: Ship can perform sample extraction to test for radiation or harmful chemicals (both as results from recent warfare). Ship can also help in search and rescue (SAR), by using the powerful mining lasers for cut away most of the debris in which survivors/lost personnel are trapped under. A third use is cutting through abandoned ships or debris in order to recover lost intel/cargo. The amount of shielding and internal armor makes allows for high survivability, perfect for combat/hazardous zones
Mods: Archon's (thrusters, antigravs and beam emitters), Drones (drone cores)
It literally is a proof of concept design. I intend to build off of this and build a full combat suited broadsider using only beam emitters
