Eagle Prospector: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 10:41, 31 July 2023

Developed in the early 23rd century for the Free States of Earth, the Mitsudaya-Starbus Eagle Prospector was designed as a dedicated mining ship, equipped with a robust asteroid grinder and an impressive cargo hold. An angled thruster layout prevents thrust against ringroids during approach, and twin main engines provide more than enough thrust for interlunar travel. -In-Game Description

Eagle Prospector
Make	Mitsudaya-Starbus
Low-Stress	2
Drone hardpoints	2
Crew	6
Dry mass	27,500 kg
Cargo bay	125 m^3

The Eagle Prospector is a dedicated mining ship, and is quite capable in that role. The Eagle comes with a unique asteroid grinder capable of breaking up and ingesting small asteroids, while a large processed cargo storage and two drone bays make in-ring refining a common strategy. Twin torches and an angled thruster layout provide excellent maneuverability, especially with gimbled RCS.

Notes

The Eagle Prospector is currently the only ship explicitly designed for mining, not including custom modifications.
Despite having two torches and four hardpoints, the Eagle has an incredibly light dry mass.
