- All standard features and systems expected on a ship of this class
- Sygium crystal cloaking device
- HIMS
- Molecular shielding
- Advanced ECM suite
- Advanced lifesign scanners
- Advanced animal welfare facility - significant space dedicated to the safe storage and welfare of beasts
- Complement of Veterinarian medical droids
- Elusive Hunter - with a cloaking device and a HIMS systems it is hard to find and hard to pin down
- Quality of animal storage and welfare on board is second to none, even if the whole ship seems to smell slightly like a zoo.
- Limited Marine complement - the ship has so much space dedicated to animal welfare that there is little room for non-essential personal making it vulnerable to boarding.
- Wide variety of creatures kept aboard requires regular stops for supplies of food and other welfare products.
The Menagerie is a flying zoo, modified from an old mandolorian design to house creatures from all over the galaxy safely and humanely. The large hangar bay services the huntsman bio-lifters and has secure transport routes to different areas of the ship.
The ship complement is fairly paired down compared to other ships of the same size, with only a minimal marine complement and essential personnel. A large number of veterinary droids are present to ensure the animals are well tended to.
despite the fact that it is primarily an animal storage facility, it is fairly well armed, this keeps it safe from pirates who may wish to steal its precious cargo and also allows it to fight its way out of a corner, should its advanced stealth technology fail it.
