EQUIPMENT

DESCRIPTION
The Class 720 light freighter, often simply called the Ghtroc 720, is an antiquated but still desirable cargo transport which was once manufactured by the now-defunct Ghtroc Industries. One of the company's last profitable ventures, the 720's popularity could never compare to its main rival, the Corellian Engineering Corporation's YT-1300, but it does maintain a small following even today.

The 720 can carry more cargo than the YT-1300, but is larger and slightly slower. Top speed is 40 MGLT, with a class 2 hyperdrive. The ship's crew consists of 2 beings, with room for up to 10 passengers, 2 month's worth of consumables and 135 standard tons of freight. Armament consists of 2 dual light laser turrets, with a medium deflector shield for defense.

Though well over a century old at this point, the Ghtroc 720 is a sturdy, reliable design, easy to maintain, repair and even modify. Many owners cite their preference for the 720 as being due to its sleek, organic lines, which are modeled to vaguely resemble a large, hard-shelled marine reptile found on some planets.

LEGALITY
Legal. Light freighters such as the Ghtroc 720 are considered innocuous enough under most jurisdictions, and are not restricted in most systems.

INTENT
To create a standard civilian transport.
