Overview

Faulcon DeLacy of Reorte, receivers of Cowell & MgRath Shipyards, have agreed to license Xeceesian Shipyards to produce a major upgrade for the Cobra Mark III. Although still a good multi-role craft it has shown its age for quite some time and in fact has seen several re-incarnations. The engineers at Xeceesian Shipyards began in conference discussing ways and means to bring the old gal up to modern specs without losing any of her charms.

Modifications

1) Interior space expanded and maximized:
Main engine housing and exhaust flanges extended out the aft hull. Cockpit & forward gun mounting completely redesigned and extended out the forward hull.
2 Kruger "lightfast" motors replaced with smaller but more powerful dual ProTren engines.
3 Addition of port and starboard DeLacy Spin Ionic engines.
4 Energy plant replaced with superior Xenion unit.

Improvements

1) Max energy increased to 320 (five energy banks).
2) Energy recharge rate increased to 5.0.
3) Max flight speed increased to 0.375 LM.
4) Max cargo increased to 40 CT.
5) Weapons & Equipment pylons increased to six.
