OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
A brainchild of the pioneering team at Incom-Freitek-Koensayr Incorporated, the UT-60-K Pulsar represents the pinnacle of shuttlecraft design, harmoniously blending speed, versatility, and tactical precision. Its appearance, sleek and imposing, hints at the capabilities lurking beneath its hull.
The Pulsar's propulsion system is nothing short of revolutionary. With two dominant engines positioned at the forefront, coupled with an array of maneuvering thrusters, it can execute flight patterns that are simply unimaginable for a craft of its size. This design gives the Pulsar an uncanny ability to hover, dart, and rotate with a grace that belies its stature.
Inside, the Pulsar's layout is meticulously planned for rapid action. Able to house up to 12 combat-ready personnel, it ensures that a squad can be deployed into action zones with minimal delay. The versatility of its internal configuration also allows for a quick switch to medical or civilian transport modes, a testament to its adaptability.
In the hands of a seasoned pilot and crew, the Pulsar promises unmatched operational efficiency, be it swift troop deployments, emergency medical evacuations, or agile combat scenarios. However, this efficiency comes with its own set of challenges. Crews must be ever-aware of its limitations and ensure they harness its strengths while remaining wary of potential vulnerabilities.

- On It's Head: The Pulsar is designed with maneuverability on the forefront, outfitted with a number of maneuvering thrusters as well as two of its main engines placed fore, allowing it to, among other great feats, literally turn 360 degrees almost in its own footprint.
- Rapid Deployment: The shuttle's internal design allows for quick configuration changes to cater to different mission needs, whether that's deploying troops, medical evacuations, or transporting civilians.
- Limited Cargo Space: Prioritizing speed and maneuverability, the Pulsar had to compromise on cargo capacity. As a result, it might not be the best choice for missions requiring a vast array of equipment.
- Firing Arc: The armaments on the shuttle are primarily facing forward, and while the dorsal-mounted turret provides some amount of aft coverage, the ventral and a large portion of the aft sections of the shuttle are complete blind spots for the armaments, meaning a sneaky fighter or speeder could do some damage undetected
