Description
The Nu-class attack/transport shuttle fills the gap between short-range gunships and larger government transports. It carries thirty personnel, is shielded, has an internal hyperdrive, and can operate independently of a carrier, making it useful for long-range troop transport, liaison, boarding support, and utility missions.
