Description: Developed specifically in an attempt to provide a ship in the same size category as the Acclamator, the Rasta Sub-class tanker features 7 million cubic meters of payspace beyond engineering and crew quarters, and represents the first foray of Ringovinda StarYards into heavy cruiser territory. As with all Ringovinda StarYards products, it enjoys great modularity. As a result, it can be used as a freighter or as a luxury liner. It can even land on planets, thanks to 12 Jessica variable-geometry landing gears, allowing it to even land on uneven surfaces, with the repulsorlift generator located underneath the main reactor. It is also equipped with the latest in collision avoidance technology, enabling it to avoid controlled flights in terrain (asteroid or planetary) as well as other spacecraft. In addition, it comes with standard inertial compensators and tensor field generators so that it can keep its contents safe so long as the ship survives.
