The Kuiper Class freighter is a simple design made to transport 10 standard cargo containers cheaply. While not a flashy ship, it is reasonably speedy, and easy to maintain. It is one of the first freighters to have been put into mass production since the Unification war, now that surpluses of wartime vessels are beginning to dwindle. The ship is designed with primary thrusters fixed aft, and must therefore perform atmospheric reentry aft-first. It possesses large air-breaking fins to assist in this, and the main sensor tower folds forward, protected by a bulkhead to decrease wear on the more delicate parts. This doesn’t really affect the ship’s sensor ability, since the sensors being shielded are those used to monitor pulse drive activity. Cargo modules can be unloaded to ground level even from the upper deck thanks to extending boom arms that run athwartship. ‘Garage’ modules can lower ground vehicles to the ground without detaching, but unless one such module is aboard, loading free cargo is a laborious activity requiring trudging up the stairs. | The Kuiper Class freighter is a simple design made to transport 10 standard cargo containers cheaply.

The Kuiper Class freighter is a simple design made to transport 10 standard cargo containers cheaply. While not a flashy ship, it is reasonably speedy, and easy to maintain. It is one of the first freighters to have been put into mass production since the Unification war, now that surpluses of wartime vessels are beginning to dwindle. The ship is designed with primary thrusters fixed aft, and must therefore perform atmospheric reentry aft-first. It possesses large air-breaking fins to assist in this, and the main sensor tower folds forward, protected by a bulkhead to decrease wear on the more delicate parts. This doesn’t really affect the ship’s sensor ability, since the sensors being shielded are those used to monitor pulse drive activity. Cargo modules can be unloaded to ground level even from the upper deck thanks to extending boom arms that run athwartship. ‘Garage’ modules can lower ground vehicles to the ground without detaching, but unless one such module is aboard, loading free cargo is a laborious activity requiring trudging up the stairs.
