Leda 11-Z

A compact and nimble ship, the Leda was originally commissioned for research duty in the Cold Caverns. Relatively low pressures allowed for a unique command deck design. This vessel features a large observation area, providing full view of the European waters. Rightly mocked for this lightly armoured, unconventional, and expensive design by more conservative captains, the Leda has been left by the wayside, now only used in civilian duty and by the eccentric. Class: Scout Size: 37x8 m Cost: 10,000 Mk Recommended Crew Size: 4 - 7 Recommended crew experience - Intermediate Features: Professionally engineered observation deck The Leda features a large glass canopy for viewing the hypnotic sights that Europa offers those who ply its courses. This is the most expensive part by far - Getting pressure resistance up to spec while maintaining such high visibility isn't easy! (Advisory - XSOL offers no compensation for material defects in the High-VIS silicate glass, nor does it claim responsibility for any catastrophic compression events.) High Performance Forward Coilgun The coilgun fitted to the nose of the vessel has been modified to operate in burstfire - Allowing more rounds to be put on target in a short period of time. Just watch the charge - Prolonged firing can and will exhaust the power supply. Open ballast tank configuration In the face of emerging criticism during design, engineers accounted for potential disaster cases with an elegant solution - Allow all excess overflow in critical areas to drain straight to ballast! (Due to budget constraints, surplus shuttle ballast pumps may be issued in place of standard grade ballast pumps. Any questions can be forwarded to your local ship dealer.) Like the sub? Give it a rating! Hate it? Mail me bees or something. Wow, I'm still making submarines! Who'd have thought. Much like the Phoenix, this submarine is completely open to third party modification and mucking about with. I can't ensure liftetime support, but I'll try(?)
