O.S.A. Light Transport 'Hireling'

"A few minutes later, Hjalm had gathered his pioneers in their hangar, adjacent to the Charmer’s. Their ship, the Hireling, was docked near the far wall. Strictly a personnel-carrying vessel, it was smaller than the Charmer, and its yellow color with white stripes always made him think of the old Roquette."
-From Forces of Equilibrium

Used by the pioneers of the O.S.A., the Hireling is designed to carry its crew of four across vast distances in space. It is therefore only lightly armed, but use decoys to keep enemy fire away from its main hull.

Should the need arise, it is equipped with a refinery and assembler for the construction of components and equipment. Its hydrogen propulsion allows it to land on—and launch from—a planet’s surface if necessary. To aid in any construction or salvaging tasks, an A-2 Utility Craft is attached to its rear connector.
