DESCRIPTION​

The Pelta-class frigate was a versatile model of frigate manufactured by Kuat Drive Yards that had several different configured variants. This one in particular was either used as a medical transport or bulk freighter, but has been heavily scrapped of most of its identifying tech. After floating adrift in space along with a light carrier for many years, it was found by a pilot who quickly sold its location to a local crime lord who then started salvaging the wreckage. The only thing left that had not been salvaged yet, was the backup hyperspace drive, escape pods, and life support systems. The salvaging operation was interrupted by the Trinity Pirates and the ship and what was left of it, were taken.

The shell was then transported to the Blackwell Industries Ship Yard, where it was given a complete yet standard overhaul as part of deal struck with the ORI: Outer Rim Industries. The ship was to be made into a light carrier. It was modeled after the Shogun-Class Carrier but at almost half the size. All of the ships cargo space as well as 90% of the crew space, was gutted and transformed into additional hanger space. These type of modifications are a standard upgrade for pelta-class frigates and can be performed by any spaceport or shipyard worth its weight.

The ship itself is no match for any capital ship with turbo lasers, but can hold its own against most swarms of smaller craft. The Aminos was created to be a flying hanger and is most effective as part of a much larger fleet with capital ship support.

LEGALITY​

It is restricted to people with military and planetary defense licenses. Due to its typical heavy armament in its various roles, it would be heavily searched if not under proper licensing.

INTENT​

So that I could make a faction mission pack with the goal of restoring this ship to be used by the Pyke Syndicate. This is the finished product of a mission pack completed by the Pyke Syndicate.

RESTRICTIONS​

As a Capitol Ship, this ship is unable to be used by a single character and must be used by a faction asset, only.

Bloated the crew size and nerfed the hanger capacity as we talked about. @AutoFox

 

[AutoFox]

As we discussed, please add some information about how this is not a unique design, and that other shipyards can perform this conversion on other Pelta-class ships.

I think I added standard overhaul now and that would clarify that this type of modification could be completed by other shipyards and companies. Tell me what you think @AutoFox

 

[AutoFox]

I don't see that anywhere in the description.

I don't see that anywhere in the description.

I must not have clicked the save button. The changes are in the 2nd paragraph in the use of "standard" in sentence #1 and adding "These type of modifications are a standard upgrade for pelta-class frigates and can be performed by any spaceport or shipyard worth its weight." In the last line of the same paragraph.

 

[AutoFox]

Approved. I have made changes to refer to this ship as the Aminos pattern carrier, which makes it more plain that anyone could build one of these with the right materials.
