- Full medical and scientific bays for various types of research, treatment and study of all types of flora, fauna and other types of biology. It also allows for the treatment of any type of injury or poison as the on board medical synthesizing equipment allows for the creation of any type of drugs, anti-venom, synthetic flesh or types of bandages so long as the raw materials to make said treatments are on board.
- Full sleeping quarters for up to 8 personnel, canteen/galley (with all the bells and whistles to cook extremely good food), observation deck and even state of the art communications suite with a holo-projector.
- Scientific bays include observation rooms for various forms of flora and/or fauna. Transparisteel lining the walls are rated for even up to E-Web Heavy Repeaters to contain flora/fauna specimens. Full sensors package in each pod to monitor any/all types of flora/fauna in the pods to include life signs, any kinds of radiation, and full recording suite to store all pertinent data on all specimens.
- Specimen extraction tools built into each of the scientific containment/observation bays that allow for the safe extraction of any kind of sample needed from a specimen. This keeps the people aboard the ship safe when performing extractions on things most consider highly dangerous.
- If the computers detect that the transparosteel view ports are becoming compromised due to a specimen becoming violent, it will first analyze whether or not it has any type of sedatives that might be used to calm specimen down. If none is available it will simply droid a small disintegration grenade to reduce the specimen to quite literal ash in a humane mercy killing. This also protects the crew from specimens attempting to break containment.
- Four deployable point defense rapid fire laser cannons are the ship's only armament.
- Onboard fire suppression system and gel is able to automatically detect, combat and extinguish any fires on board. Even in the galley so be careful not to burn the bacon too much.
- RMT-TR8 Hamada Tractor Beam provides all the guidance you need to dock the ship's aerospace speeder with the ship's internal bay.
- Comes with a standard modular recreation center that has three modes, mobile movie theater, sparring/training room with destructible targets which can be rebuilt by the ship and redeployed, and a simple rest/relaxation environment with whatever you want for ambiance.
- Stealth system aboard the ship is a state of the art system that focuses on fooling sensors and optical sensors to run in a stealth mode. When stealth mode is engaged, the engines switch to a whisper thrust mode where they swap from primary fuel sources to TibannaX. This not only super cools their emissions but allows the whisper thrust engine to work extremely efficiently to mask the ships drive signature. Next is Mag-Field generators that are spread across the ship to reduce and make the ship's magnetic signature be reduce by an extreme amount. Finally is the ship's optical and sensor fooling package where the ship will deploy Reflec coated shielding across the entirety of the ship, with panels in this shielding dedicated to displaying what is on the opposite of this vessel. This coats the entirety of the vessel in a dull black color, and with the panels displaying images seen on the other side of the vessel, this gives the ship a near invisible profile. And finally the ship deactivates its shields meaning you can't even use that signature to track the vessel. It won't show up on radars, or any type of tracking computers and the only way to find it is to physically see it. And with the optical panels breaking up its silhouette, this will be very difficult to do unless you are at point blank range, unless you're some kind of space wizard or something.
- Meili Hyperdrive is much more efficient and complements the stealth system perfectly. This means that a ship can jump into and out of hyperspace while in stealth mode, meaning that this thing will be very hard to find if someone wants to keep this ship running quiet. While this means they can't move very fast in sub light speeds, it still provides a huge advantage to being able to stay quiet and sneak away from a fight.
- MXC-R13 Saja-class Sensor Array provides state of the art sensor gathering for missions when you just want to stand back and gather some information on your surroundings. This sensor array can run passively while stealth mode is engaged, meaning it can receive radiation and other indications of nearby objects, but all active scanning is deactivated. This is to not compromise the ship's stealth profile.
- RX-D13 and RX-D13X drives have all been upgraded to include a whisper thrust engine mode to make the engines much more stealthy when put into stealth mode. This makes the engines run a bit more smoothly but also reduces their output slightly.
- Very Good all around Science Vessel: This ship is meant for science and exploratory missions into the vast voids of space. And while she can certainly land on planets should she wish, who wants to risk their ships on such dangerous endeavors? That's why you got the custom Aerospace Speeder in the trunk of this thing. She's got labs, medical facilities, synthesizers and sensors and this thing that you put stuff in and spins round and round really fast. Basically if you can think of it, I'm sure it's here, somewhere but definitely here.
- Low Power stealth tech: So most stealth tech is based on the idea of using a field of some kind to literally mask the ship's profile from all around them. This however limits their abilities to jump into and out of hyperspace, and run this technology for long without a sizable power supply. That is no longer an issue with this though, because of the ship's stealth tech construction, she can not only run this indefinitely, but she can jump into and out of hyperspace with stealth mode on. That means this ship will only pop up on your sensors twice if the pilots so choose. Once when it enters the system, and the second time, when it leaves.
- Stealth tech is dependent on hull integrity: This ship's stealth tech, while revolutionary, only works at the maximum while the ship is moving slower, and doesn't have any holes in it. As each hole gets progressively bigger the Reflec coatings on the hull will get less and less effective. One way to negate this is by keeping the holes in the coating away from whatever you're hiding from, but without sensors, that's a very difficult thing to pull off.
- When stealth is on, weapons are not: This ship can't have its weapons deployed when the stealth mode is engaged. This means when the Reflec coatings up, the turrets pull to the inside of the ship and lock themselves down. This takes about half a minute to cycle so the deployment isn't instant either.
When approached by the Scientist Vanir Eris for a custom corvette class vessel with which to conduct his research from, Freebirds Industries took the opportunity to develop a few new technologies for the ship's test bed. This included a sensor and monitoring system that would monitor all of the possible signs from flora/fauna that would be placed in observation/containment aboard the vessel, including safeties and other necessary precautions should these specimens get out of hand. And on top of all of this, there is a full medical and biological laboratory that allows for the study and synthesis of any known material in the galaxy, so long as there is supply material on board to feed into the synthesizer. This allows for any research to be done aboard the vessel to whatever the good scientist's heart desires. That being said, the real gem of this vessel is its stealth system for when it might possibly get into trouble. Unlike most other standard stealth systems, this one does not in fact use a field generator or any kind of cloaking technology, instead using deployable materials, radar reflective patterns in the hull, whisper thrust drive systems and even TibannaX. All of the technologies aboard this vessel make it essentially undetectable on any type of sensors, and with the optical camouflage panels breaking up the total black silhouette of the vessel, the only way to actually see it, is to get point blank with the vessel, and actually see it. Otherwise it blends into the background of space extremely well. And while it can't really shoot back while in stealth, it doesn't need to, because the goal is to get away, not fight the enemy. So when you're looking for stealth scientific ships, think of Freebirds Industries.
