DESCRIPTION
The BV-6000 Stratostreak is a passenger airspeeder manufactured by Blackwell Vehicles, a subsidiary of the venerable Blackwell Technologies corporation. Marketed originally to civilian customers, the Stratostreak has developed a following among law enforcement as well, with Blackwell offering the "Patrol/Interdiction Gear" (P/IG) option package.

The Stratostreak is a fairly sporty craft, capable of a top speed of 760 kph with decent maneuverability, propelled by a pair of over-sized outrigger turbofans. The vehicle seats 3, including the pilot and 2 passengers, with 1 passenger up front and a second in the rear; all seats can eject in an emergency. Cargo capacity is some 250 kilograms, with consumables sufficient for 2 days of flight time. Standard amenities include a computerized navigation system, holographic entertainment deck and a climate control system.

The P/IG option package for law enforcement adds a single forward-firing medium blaster cannon, a targeting computer for precision shooting, a rear-mounted tractor beam for towing or forcing other vehicles to stop, and a suspect restraint system fitted to the rear seat which encloses the occupant in an energy field which physically prevents them from moving.

Notably, all Stratostreaks are fitted with twin flip-up forward spotlights, which are considered to be a trendy styling cue.

LEGALITY
Legal/restricted. BV-6000 Stratostreaks are standard passenger airspeeders, with no special licensing requirements. However, when fitted with the P/IG option package, Stratostreaks gain a number of capabilities that are generally restricted to law enforcement. Possessing one with this option pack fitted as a civilian requires extensive special licensing to remain legal.

INTENT
To create a passenger airspeeder for use by both civilians and law enforcement.
