- Small thrusters utilizing TibannaX allow for course corrections mid flight, but also keep the signature down to make it difficult to detect the pods regardless of where it is.
- Artificial Ionite on the pods allow them to bypass most shields, allowing them for use in space combat to bypass shield.
- Once in atmosphere an altimeter sensor on the outside will detect when the proper time to deploy a drag chute, and fire all maneuvering jets to try to lessen the impact on the ground as much as possible.
- The plasma warhead on the nose of the craft is meant to do the same thing, however it softens the blow by partially melting/superheating the metal to allow for the pod to stick to metal surfaces when directly hit.
- Reflec Coatings and Optical Camouflage system gives the craft a very naturally stealthy build, with the ability to avoid most if not all sensors and hide it until someone gets extremely close.
- Synthetic Yorik Coral optional which makes this pod shielded from the senses of Force users.
- The construction of the pod as well gives the vessel themselves an extremely small radar cross section, with many people and computers, mistaking the pods for small debris which would pose no threat to anything larger than an unshielded fighter craft. This gives the pods an unmatched stealth approach to targets both on a planet and in space as they are basically impossible to identify before it is well too late.
- Internal controls of the craft and inertial dampeners allow for this craft to be able to handle the G-forces and maneuver through the vacuum of space.
- Extremely small and easy to hide: These pods both for boarding actions and landing on planets are extremely hard to detect and even harder to identify. Space is massive, and you're literally looking for an 1.6 meter x 1.6 meter by 5 meter rod that essentially blends into the background of space extremely well. It's like looking for a slightly different colored piece of hay, in a haystack. Good luck.
- Ballistic velocity: The pods move extremely quickly because if they need speed to hit a target they are able to be loaded into and shot out of the Mjolnir Mass Driver. Otherwise they just allow gravity to do all the work for landing on planets. This allows for them to be aimed by targeting computers on ships allowing for multitudes of calculations on where and when to shoot these pods, making course corrections a lot of the time unnecessary. This also has an upgraded TibannaX engine package allowing it to maneuver and speed right along.
- Lol shields: The onboard Artificial Ionite coating allow for these pods to travel through most shields very safely and effectively and are strong enough that even planetary shielding can be disrupted to allow the pods passage.
- Who needs air?: These pods have no life support systems on board as all extra power is diverted to the field disrupters and necessary systems to maneuver the craft for course corrections and deploy drag devices for landing. And while the significantly larger compartment allows for more air to be trapped in the compartment when it seals, I'd recommend you bring your own air supply.
- Nancy No Guns: This ship has no offensive weapons, or any weapons at all really. Aside from whatever its operator brings inside the pod.
So remember the original Silver Bullet that was meant for a 800mm mass driver? Well this one, is bigger, badder, more comfy and capable starship that you can utilize to board enemy vessels. It swaps out several technologies for later and greater variants to make this ship much more capable as a boarding vessel. This includes slightly larger and much more powerful engines and better control surfaces, better avionics and displays, and more room for you to bring more crap in to blow up the enemy. And given that this ship has an inertial dampener unlike its earlier counterpart you can fly this faster, harder and further into the enemy's position. So just like before, strap on in my friend, get comfy and brace yourself. You just saddled on up into a one way elevator going straight into hell.
Going down.
