Xeceesian Shipyards presents the 'Accipiter'

The first unit left space dock at precisely 2084536 20:12:05, preceded by a speech from the CEO and accompanied by cheers and adulations. It was the fruition of many years of planning, the goal of which was to improve the planets sagging industrial output. This first design placed them in direct competition with Cowell & MgRath's successful Cobra Mk III. By offering the customer a vessel with superior ProTren engines and Xenion energy plant it was projected to create a wedge in C&M's market. All this at a small sacrifice of cargo space for only 50,000 credits more than the Cobra Mk III and far cheaper than many of its successors.

Standard Equipment

Large cargo bay boosting hold to 30 TC.
Forward beam laser.
Aft pulse laser.
