Militia class Express Escort

Source message

I decided to enjoy myself during lunch time, and created the following ship. It is very, very PC oriented, even though I figured out a dodge to try to justify it. This ship would never turn a profit, so it would have to be a government (or Megacorp, or noble?) owned vessel. At 1% cargo space per month, this ship could carry 6 months worth of supplies. Fyrd is the miltia in England during the Saxon era.

COMMENTS
The Militia class Express Escort has a good Jump range and is very fast
in normal space. It's primary purpose is to carry a small special
operations team quickly while having good offensive and defensive
capabilities for its size.  The black globe gives it stealth capabilities
in addition to providing defence.  The Ship's Boat has a separate crew so
it can act in concert with its ship.
