History

Very little is known about the origin of this ship. Most likely the design came from the mysterious Empire in the unknown regions Benulobiweed Inc. had business with. However, the shipyard producing the first models is long forgotten, it might have been an enthusiastic subcontractor. What is remembered is that the original drafts showed a Lambda-class T-4a shuttle so the first model was named Lambda Shuttle. However, after the first set of 100 ships left the slave-labored yard the name was hastily changed to Lambda Freighter T5-F01 and the manager disposed. Even after readjusting the price and offer some equipment in the package hardly any buyers could be attracted. With a mass roughly 10-times of a Anaconda (Oolite) but only 90 t maximal cargo this construction was a nightmare. What Spaceship? noted on a side mark that this must be the ship with the most luxurious crew quarters GalCop ever saw. Needless to say that not even 6 months later the Lambda Freighter T5-F02 was introduced. It didn't prevent the bankrupting of the company so with only 2 models the first of the Lambda series became history.
