DESCRIPTION​

Many Mandalorians answering the call to join the Crusade under the Mand'alor did so with ships designed, and modified, for work as bounty hunters or mercenaries. The main utility of these ships was that they could house a small unit of Mandalorians, haul some cargo, and hold captives due to the size of their cargo holds and other areas. This was typically a trade-off for effective armaments, shielding, or speed - in the worst cases, all three.

MandalMotors designed and produced the Kotir-Class Gunship to be the perfect example of that same mindset, allowing pilots who had only ever flown their bounty-hunting ships a specifically designed ship that was familiar but improved. Weaponry to cover every angle of attack to provide a strong, active, defense during an assault run - turrets to fight back against Starfighters, fixed cannons and launchers to damage enemy capital ships and ground emplacements.

When not engaged in securing local air/space superiority, the gunship can be used to provide close air support planetside without losing sight of one of its primary advantages over other ships also capable of dealing lots of damage; the Kotir-Class Gunship can transport up to 20 Mandalorian warriors, not including the crew.

With its firepower, the Kotir-Class Gunship can punch a hole through enemy airpower, provide close air support to suppress and destroy enemies and insert two squads of Mandalorian warriors almost anywhere on a battlefield at a moment's notice. Boarding enemy capital ships are also within the scope of the gunship as one of the many after-market modifications taken from bounty-hunting ships was the docking ring with an integrated hull-cutting docking tube.

LEGALITY​

Restricted. Considered a warship, the Kotir-Class Gunship is restricted as such to military use by Mandalorians serving in the Crusades, therefore legal to own in Mandalorian space and heavily suspect in any other space even with proper authorization.

INTENT​

To give the Mandalorians a gunship that can deal a lot of damage in space, and in the atmosphere, and drop off a squad of Mandalorians either onto enemy ships or planets.

RESTRICTIONS​

Restricted to use by Mandalorian faction members or those who have successfully taken them from the Mandalorians through combat or otherwise stolen the ship IC.
