FSV Sojourner Mk. 4

We here at Flawedspirit Stellar Dynamics (FSD) Incorporated thank you for your purchase of the LC-4300 "Sojourner" Light Exploration and Cargo Vessel.

The Sojourner is an unlock level 15 CV, meant to act as an mid-game single player cargo hauler and mobile base to explore the cosmos in. The ship comes with three 320 kSU cargo boxes. The ship has a dry-lift capacity of 20.9 kt of cargo. In addition, "Heavy Lift" mode allows a load of 77.8 kt of cargo to lift off vertically on a 1.0 g planet. This is sufficient to lift the ship with every cargo container on board (including the ammo container) filled to maximum capacity with combat steel blocks. In addition, the "Military Thrust" mode allows a faster forward travel speed, even fully loaded (41 m/s in space; more than enough for warp travel).

WARNING! This ship is not 100% CPU compliant. The ship will have an efficiency of 81% with tier 3 CPU upgrades.

The structure is comprised mainly of regular steel and carbon fiber to keep weight down. The Sojourner is divided into five compartments (Bridge, Crew Compartment, Hangar Deck, Shield Compartment, Engine Room) with combat steel bulkheads between each. The front and rear hull are also combat steel. This is to prevent an enemy from easily holing the ship fore to aft with sustained fire.

Please note that this is not a combat-oriented CV! While the ship is outfitted with plenty of weapon hardpoints and turret options, it has not been tested in extreme combat scenarios. It can probably hold its own in combat with POIs unshielded but it is not built to handle PVP.
