Characteristics

Measuring fourteen meters in length, it required a pilot and a gunner/co-pilot. It carried consumables for one or two days and 85 kilograms of cargo. The craft could achieve 850 kilometers per hour, and it did not have a hyperdrive. For combat it boasted two forward fire-linked laser cannons, two turreted fire-linked laser cannons, one proton torpedo launcher, and modest shields.

It was widely used by criminals, including the Tenloss Syndicate and Black Sun. Rebel privateers made use of them as well.
