Samura Debuts Next Generation Surveyor |
Planet New Tokyo, New Tokyo - Samura Spokesperson Kenichiro Watanabe introduced a new line of Next-Gen Surveyors to the Consumer Utilities Convention Keynote Expo to thunderous applause: “The Surveyor is more than just a ship, it’s a symbol of ingenuity and industrial development to all the Sirian Colonies. It’s a pattern that dates back to our origins in the Sol system, and it’s a pattern that will persist for many generations to come. Just as we have adapted to meet new challenges, so too must the Surveyor to meet emergent needs.” The Next-Gen Surveyor is slated to roll out multiple updates ranging from technological optimizations to upgraded armor and firepower capabilities. Many of the new modifications directly address a recent study by the Sirius International Institute of Statistics and Economics, citing up to 32% losses by BMM and Kruger Minerals to piracy and related factors. The ship’s expanded armour increased the ship’s mass by almost 50%, which forced Samura’s Surveyor team to completely overhaul the ship’s power delivery system, powerplant, and hull. The new ship utilizes a power delivery system integrated into the super-alloy frame. The integrated frame was torture tested at the Aso High Altitude Proving Grounds, and sports certifications as best in class for maneuvering with a load under high Gs. Though time will tell whether the upgrade will prove successful in addressing the increase of piracy, the stock market has greeted the welcome news with a 15 point general increase, and a relative high for Samura and mining sector stocks. |
