Sensors work at three times the range of other corvette sensors
Sealed against Biohazards
Enhanced Solar Shielding means it can get closer to Stars, hiding for up to 7 hours closer to one than other ships of its size could normally get.
All Electronics reinforced against Ion Damage, capable of quickly being repaired with minimal resources in the event this resistance is overwhelmed. Ship in general has Enhanced Ion Shielding
Equipped with onboard stasis pods
Highly modular.
Capable of self repair to minimal condition via repair drones
Miniaturized version of the Scion Solar Recovery System and power plant allow it to remain operable with enough energy for up to seven months before it needs to refuel, vastly cutting down on fuel and dry docks
Armory
Capable of operating underwater and high pressure atmospheres
Lots of emergency survival gear, including dive suits and space suits
Ability to hold up to 8 speederbikes
Multiple repair drones enable the ship to fix itself
Back up mini heavy duty power plant in case primary one takes damage
Spacious barracks Quarters that contain escape pods with stasis chamber technology capable of keeping up to six occupants alive for one and a half years in hibernation with a constant distress beacon.
Mini Electro-Sifters
Advanced Med Bay with optional Medical Nuetralizer Model 1
STRENGTHS
Why won't you die?: Heavy Shielding and Armor make this craft difficult to bring down via conventional means for most interceptors and even ships two to three times it's size may have trouble destroying it. It's Electronics are reinforced against Ion and EMP weapons, and capable of being restored quickly with minimal resources should this resistance be overwhelmed, and has Enhanced Ion Shielding in general
Self Reliant: Advanced Life support includes a ship wide healing field Generator that can treat severe injuries in under several hours, enhanced Radiation scrubbers to cleanse severe radiation exposure , stasis pods, a Molecular Furnace, miniaturized versions of the Scion Solar Recovery System and Power Plant, and a Molecular Furnace to fabricate repair parts to ship components and weapons, means this ship can keep it's occupants alive through overwhelming odds, and the ship itself without need for refueling or dry dock for potentially years. It's power plant can keep the ship going with all systems running for up to three years, and can take conventional fuel if necessary, but mostly refuels on Solar Energy. Also has a large armory space. Also Possesses a mini heavy duty back up powerplant in case the first one takes damage. A advance med bay with optional Medical Nuetralizer is included
Fixit: Onboard supply of repair drones can quickly restore ship to minimal function even if heavily damaged. As long as it has the proper resources...to repair to more than minimal function, the ship will need to dry dock...
Run everywhere: It's hull is made to operate in immensely hostile conditions, such as naturally hot planets, ice worlds like Hoth, underwater, even highly acidic or high pressure, even highly radioactive atmospheres for extended periods. Heavy Solar Shielding means it can hide closer to Stars than most other ships it's size., Up to three times closer and still be able to escape
Unlimited Ammo: It's Energy Torpedo Launcher has limitless ammo as long as the power plant works, and can fire once every ten seconds
Sensitive: Highly sensitive scanners based on scientific instruments enable it to detect various spatial hazards and anomalies as well as threats at three times the range of a typical corvette
Jammer: Enhanced Targeting Jammers make it difficult for most modern vessels to get a lock, even with missiles
Problem Solving: A non networked micro super computer, hardened against EMP and Ion damage, makes calculations for countering threats from enemy ships, space hazards, medical emergencies, and other dangers, as long as datatapes with the relevant information is fed into it. This computer can also store all ship logs and recordings and can be biometrically locked
Quality sensors: Can detect ships at three times the range of normal corvette
Fast shot: It's pulse cannon projectiles travel much faster than ordinary laser cannon bolts, offering almost no delay between firing and impact
Fast: It's Engines make it fast for a vessel this size, and are Enhanced to run at top speed three times longer than most other vessels in its Size Category. This also enables it to escape a sun's gravity pull in case it must get closer
Comfort Barracks: it's quarters are all large, up to seven, with two triple bunk beds in each welded to the floor, a refresher, and a mini kitchen. Room exists for personal decoration, but each has a wall safe to store emergency funds, and a miniature Electro Sifter and Water Survey Device . Each barrack/quarters also contains an escape pod capable of holding up to six occupants, and fitted with stasis tech that can keep them alive up to a year and a half with an onboard distress beacon
Comms: Encrypted Comm transmittermake it very difficult to intercept and translate it's ship to ship communication
WEAKNESSES
Agility: It's heavy armor reduces it's agility
Torpedo Recharge: After firing five consecutive shots from each launcher, it needs thirty seconds to recharge
Recharge Vulnerable: When it's recharging it's solar reserves is technically the best time to hit it, as it's shields will be down. Also, any damage it's collection reactors take will have a cascade effect on the power plant.
Solar Limits: Can only hide close to a star for up to 7 hours
Hydro limits: can only remain underwater for 28 hours
Rad Limits: Can only be in active conventionally irradiated areas for up to 28 hours
Hyperdrive Limits: After seven consecutive jumps, the drive needs four hours to cool down
Low Armament: It's guns are to help survived pitched skirmishes not win major battles
Torpedo Limits: Torpedoes are Dumbfired, and incapable of tracking targets.
Escape Pod Rescue Clause: Depending on if you have to use the hibernation feature, it may not be friendly forces that rescue you
Wide Profile: It's design makes for a large target
DESCRIPTION
A Citizen Corvette of House Io. Obsessed with survivability, These Corvettes are designed to take heavy damage from ships much larger than itself and flee to nearly any dangerous environment. Based off ancient Science Survey ships, these vessels, due to more streamlined, efficient manufacturing Techniques, can be made at only a quarter the cost of other ships in this category. Often used by House Citizens with large families that need to be out in deep space for extended periods. It's not unusual for House Citizens to be nomadic and swear by heavily defended and self reliant vessels, as experience with being planetside for Destructive Invasions have left sour tastes in their mouth. Only heavily defensible planets appeal to them beyond ships
