A Mongoose 2e design. This is an upgraded mercenary cruiser (bumped to TL13 with other changes) built to carry small troop units for corporate, governmental or, more commonly, mercenary operations. It is armed with four missile barbettes and carries two full reoads (200 missiles) in its magazine, and four pulse laser barbettes.
It has enough space to carry a combat platoon of 30, plus crew and support personnel, along with their equipment, albeit in fairly cramped confines. To save space, the crew are robotic in nature though there is a sophont aboard for each department to oversee things. Even the modular cutters are robotically piloted.
The platoon can be deployed to a planet’s surface via the two modular cutters housed inside the ship. Two spare cutter modules can be carried in addition to those installed on the cutters, providing greater versatility in missions, although changing modules requires a delicate dance of launch, release, recovery and transfer of modules that can take up to an hour.
A luxury stateroom is reserved for the ship’s owner, and comes with a robotic steward.
