Star-Wars-Short-Hauler

The Lantillian GX1 Short Hauler was a rugged and well-engineered vessel. Originally designed as a pleasure craft, it featured several amenities geared towards the comfort of its owner, such as a well-designed galley, a holotheater, and large living quarters. For defense, the basic configuration was armed with a civilian-graded turbolaser cannon and some modest shielding. These defenses however, often proved inadequate against attacks from pirates and other attackers, so most owners quickly upgraded them.

The GX1 was easily converted from pleasure craft to cargo hauler, by removing most "pleasure" amenities. Its solid construction and reliability made it a good choice for cargo transport, and many smuggler captains retrofitted them to serve as smuggling vessels.

One of its most infamous flaws was that its landing gear was extremely complex and maintenance-heavy. Obstructions such as dust and corrosion could easily jam its mechanisms and prevent it from retracting or deploying properly.

I created this build with the intent on giving the new owners the option of changing colors of their ship. In the Engineering section there are LCD's with each of the 4 color codes that can be copied and pasted into the paint tool. Enjoy.

Pair this CV with the SV, Short-Haul-Shuttle.
