Description
Forty powered-armor charging compartments open directly to space for rapid deployment. The shuttle approaches behind heavily reinforced forward shields, anchors itself with tractor projectors or a power harpoon, and supports the boarding action with four heavy blaster cannon and concussion missiles. Its navigation computer supports three hyperspace jumps, allowing independent raids without converting the craft into a long-range transport.
