Constructed of composite synth steel layered with thick armour out of a titanium triplated hull alloy, this hardened Zoner transport is used to traverse regions of the borderworlds where diplomacy often takes a back seat to the gun. Laden with relatively generous gun hardpoints and the ability to lay a withering field of mines in her wake make this ship no easy target. Aspired to replace the aging dromedary model which is still the mainstay of the Zoners' traders fleet, the model was placed in limited numbers upon the open market for purchase by trusted pilots.

Handling

Not being known as a really capable Gunboat, its role is more fitting as a support ship. Lacking the numbers of available turret mounts, the double mine droppers may prove to be incredibly devastating when mastered. Large cargo hold gives it a small plus when it comes to hauling emergency cargos or personnel.
