OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

> Intent: To submit a new drive technology for Naboo.
> Image Source: N/A
> Canon Link: N/A
> Restricted Missions: N/A
> Primary Source: [X]

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

> Manufacturer: Royal Naboo Shipwrights
> Model: Nabooian Magnetic Drive (NMD)
> Affiliation: Naboo
> Modularity: No
> Production: Semi-Unique
> Material: Durasteel | Duraplast | Titanium | Quadanium | Cap-Drains | Ion Surge Shielding

SPECIAL FEATURES

> Utilizes near silent propulsion through means of creating a superconducting magnet to force water through the submersible's shaft, which is then funneled through the aft.
> Inefficient in terms of speed, but highly efficient means of propulsion to evade radar and other advanced sensor equipment.

Strengths:

[ + ] Allows for silent operation of the submersible.
[ + ] Resilient to EMP/ION disruption due to highly contained fields, shielding, and cap-drains.


Weaknesses:

[ - ] Can only be utilized on submersible craft. Cannot be retrofitted to any other vehicle, be it land, atmospheric, or space.
[ - ] Provides only speeds of Very Slow and Low maneuverability. This drive sacrifices both for stealth technology.
[ - ] Can only be fitted to submersible vehicles of size Large or greater.

DESCRIPTION

Developed for use in the highly advanced NHS warship, this drive sacrifices speed and maneuverability as a means to provide silent underwater operation. While it can be fitted to a number of other vessels, it is limited in its use to submersibles, as the nature of the drive prevents its use for land, air, or space travel. Any vehicle fitted with the NMD will not reach speeds exceeding that of Very Slow, nor maneuverability greater than Low as the drive does not have the physical prowess to produce sufficient energy enough so to exceed these ratings. The sole purpose of this drive is to run silently, not quickly.
