This category contains the various Equipment you can install on your ships.

Hardpoints

External equipment is mounted onto hardpoints. The following equipment are all attached to external hardpoints

Mass Drivers
Energy Weapons
Drones
Detachable equipment such as Cargo Containers, the B8 Claim Beacon, the NT Mining Companion, and the External Impact Absorber

Different types of hardpoints -- high-stress, low-stress, drone hardpoints, and docking bays -- can accommodate different equipment.

Internal Storage

Ships have storage in the form of

Kinetic Ammunition used by Mass Drivers
Nanodrone Components used by Drones
Propellant Tanks for the Reaction Control System, Main Propulsion, and Powerplant
Cargo Bay that stores unprocessed ore and cargo, and may contain a mineral processing unit to process ore into processed minerals.

Thrusters

Thrusters consume propellant and use heat and electrical power to accelerate the ship.

Reaction Control Systems provide fine maneuvering and rotational control
Main Propulsion

Power

The power system consists of the following

Reactor Core that provides thermal power used by thrusters, the powerplant, auxiliary generators, and some other equipment
Powerplant that produces electrical power
Ultracapacitor Array that store excess electrical energy to be used during peak demand
Auxiliary Power Unit either an additional electrical generator or an electrical energy storage system

Electronics

A ships electronics consist of

Autopilot that maintains a stable velocity and orientation of the ship
Head-Up Display to display to the pilot the status of the ship, its systems, and external sensors
Reconnaissance Craft that provides an external view of the ship
