XT-07 "StarHawk Class" Light Freighter

Affiliation:
'N/A' (Looking for a Company to Sponsor this ship)


Ownership: Kenric Ashta is an owner of one, however this ship is open to any who want to use this vessel.


Intent:
The MAIN purpose behind this ship is to provide my character Owen Ashta a means of transport and a mobile base of operations from where he can conduct his usual activities which include but are not limited to bounty hunting, mercenary work, occasional smuggling, and overall looking for his brother Luka Ashta. The in universe purpose is, given the timeline, to become a sort of proto YT series Modular Starship System that a customer can have and custom build to their specifications.


Model: XT-07 Light Freighter


Name: (Whatever the Customer's Preference)


Dimensions:
Length: 35 Meters
Width: 27.05 Meters
Height: 6.85 Meters (7.4 meters with landing gear fully extended)


Class: Light Freighter (AKA StarHawk Class)


Crew:
5-6 Max, 1 Minimum. Passengers Depending on configuration.


Complement:
Can carry up to 40 Metric tons or 1 full sized speeder (Or two or more speeder bikes)


Armament: Base model is practically unarmed and the customer can have that to save on weight to carry more cargo and have stronger shields. However, for the more "Best Defense is a good Offense" kind of customer, the StarHawk Class is capable of holding an assortment of weapons.


Equipment: The StarHawk Class carries standard (albeit beefier) shields than your standard freighter. They also have standard the very best in Hyperdrives that are both powerful but also user friendly for the most inept of mechanics. The ships almost always have the standard droid plug system. This system, via in the form of ports for a droid of any kind to plug into the ship from, allows a droid to control the ship entirely on their own if need be in any situation. However, the organic pilot does have the option of using the lockout programs (standard) that can keep any unauthorized droids or programs from taking control of the ship. The StarHawk Class is also equipped with the standard scanners and communications equipment so that it and its crew can access the holonet at any and all times for any occasions.


Speed: 60 MGLT


Hyperdrive Rating:
Main: Class 4
Backup: 10


Maneuverability: The StarHawk Class has been noted to being, without weapons and just the basic frame, to be a well performing machine. She can move extremely fast, even faster than with her standard 60 MGLT speed. Her maneuverability in direct turns is well but only in lower speeds however. Fully armed, her speed is around 60 MGLT if not slower depending on the weapons mounted on her, however again at low speeds she has been reported at turning on a credit chip if need be.


Features:
-Modular systems allowing for a combination of configurations for customer to make their own custom Stiletto.
-Electable cockpit in the event of emergencies, along with a built in SOS system linked to the Holonet.
-Standard Ship comes with cabins, a refresher, galley, lounge with entertainment systems, and hidden compartments for the more discreet customer. However, these can me swapped out for any configuration that the customer prefers.

Cargo is really high for a light freighter, and you could probably fit a landspeeder in with cargo too, or the very least a speeder bike. What sort of weapons comes with a standard model? What exactly is this lockout program, what does it do, specifically to lock stuff out?

Thanks for catching this but um...what would estimate the cargo capacity would be? I have no clue could you help me on this?

As for a STANDARD Weapons load out for the StarHawk Class would be just two lasers on the dorsal and ventral hulls. but as I said, the standard ship comes unarmed but that would be the STANDARD at best when it comes to weaponry, but because of its modular system you could put on just about any weapon a ship of this class could suport. Everything from quad laser cannons concussion missiles, ion cannons etc. It all depends on the customers preferences

As for the lockout program. If someone tried to slice into the ships computer systems it would automatically lock the systems down (AKA shut them off) however you have to physically interphase with the system (IE Plug into a droid port) This however is to keep low level slicers, slicer droids, and rogue droids out. If you are a high level SENTIENT slicer it would be easy to halt the lockout program before it completely locks you out of the system.

Since its marked as an escort frieghter I would say keep the basic laser turrets on top and bottom, if you want just a normal freighter go ahead and let the standard model be without arms. As for cargo for a ship of this size if you keep it an escort I would say 20-35ish tons, but if you go for a more traditional I would say close to 35-40ish

So drop the Escort deal to increase the bulk and be able to keep the normal stuff? AS for the weight I knew I was messing something up lol. I think about 40 Tons or a full sized Speeder or two speeder bikes out to do it? or is that a problem?

To be quite honest it would be a bit around say the good ol Falcon in terms of size and dimensions. Does that still count as a light freighter?

yeah that seems a reasonable to me. The idea is an Escort trades carry space for weapons, while a true blue freighter is all about carrying as much as it can.

Is this related to the Whitecloak fighter at all? I have a non-special one in my char profile in dig.

For the most part it looks good, I can't see anything right away. Maybe beef up the speed some 35mglt is on the slow side, I feel something more along the lines of 60-65

60 is a good speed, we are dealing with older tech after all.
