[SIZE=11pt]DESCRIPTION[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Reactors tend to be priority targets for precision fire, sabotage, etc. Some shipbuilders shrug and ignore the weakness; others put their power supplies inside layers upon layers of armour, sacrificing internal space that could be spent elsewhere. The GT-9 armoured reactor line uses impervium, [/SIZE][SIZE=11pt]known for[/SIZE][SIZE=11pt] implausibly great protection that doesn’t take up much space. Thin impervium plating can shrug off all but the heaviest weapons fire. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]The GT-9’s impervium skin is six centimetres thick. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]This is not the reactor you would want to install in a highly mobile starship. In a bulk freighter with powerful engines, though, the GT-9 is a solid choice. Gallofree Transports built it to meet or exceed most military specifications, with an eye to Kuati reconstruction contracts backed by CIS money. It’s also proving popular on large Corellian ships, and in the more hazardous parts of the Outer Rim Coalition - when they can afford it. Or steal it.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]On a functional level, the reactor is a generic, rugged technology with reasonably good power generation and efficiency.[/SIZE]

- [SIZE=11pt]Manufacturer: [/SIZE][SIZE=11pt]Gallofree Transports[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Affiliation: Open market (use as you will)[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Model: GT-9 Hardcase Reactor; individual sizes are labeled GT-9A through GT-9K, in increasing order of size.[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Modularity: No[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Production: Minor (large groups of characters, i.e. multiple factions, companies, or groups)[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Material: [/SIZE][SIZE=11pt]Duranium[/SIZE][SIZE=11pt], [/SIZE][SIZE=11pt]impervium[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]SPECIAL FEATURES[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Duranium/impervium construction throughout reactor, housing, instrumentation, adjacent conduit branches, etc.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Strengths:[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Immensely durable.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Weaknesses:[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=11pt]Very heavy. Not suitable for nimble light freighters, starfighters, etc. Agile light capital ships may struggle with maneuverability and acceleration. Best installed on reinforced decks. [/SIZE]
