Legend

this Rendili StarDrive shuttle was designed with a nose-end airlock. The shuttle was structurally enhanced so that it could ram into a target ship. Once the target was hulled, plasma torches mounted around the airlock would open a hole, and the airlock would seal around it. Assault troops could then board the target ship through the airlock and begin their take-over. This all could be accomplished in less than two minutes. The Katarn-class shuttle was armed with a single, front-mounted double laser cannon, and measured 28 meters in length. It could transport up to 50 troops and 500 kilograms of equipment, and required a crew of three.
