ADVANCED SYSTEMS

STRENGTHS

• Hawk-Bat Outta Hell. This ship is insanely fast at sublight and lightspeed.
• Light freighter capable of moving 6 passengers and/or 85 metric tons of cargo.

WEAKNESSES

• Civilian vessel poorly armed or defended.
• Fragile Speedster. The ship lacks a strong offense or defense, favoring speed and avoidance over staying power.
• Time Out. The Corex hyperdrive put a strain on the ship's systems when in use, requiring cooldown periods between jumps. Prolonged use of the drive was known to cause burn outs and/or interfere with ship's systems; lights, refreshers, artificial gravity.

DESCRIPTION
The CP/M-86 class was a light freighter produced by the Droid Logistics Company Limited Partnership in 900 ABY. The vessel borrowed heavily from the design of the ZH-40 Tribune class and was intended to be operated by a crew of three individuals -- pilot, navigator, and flight engineer/load master -- but could be operated by as few as a single individual. Like the CP/M-80, the CP/M-86 was intended for use by both droids and organics. As such, it included a nourishment synthisizer as well as a droid charging station. Similarly, the med bay included parts and equipment to operate as a droid repair station. Because of the power demands of the Corex hyperdrive, shields and weapon systems were scaled back significantly. This created a lack of staying power, but as a civilian vessel the designers favored avoidance anyway. To compensate, the engines were tuned to give the ship exceptional speed and handling.

Fully loaded, a CP/M-86 was capable of carrying 6 passagers and 85 metric tons of cargo.
