Background: The Trianii Engineers are brilliant, and their unassuming transport might lead cultures they encounter to believe that it is the best ship they have. They are limited to that level of engineering that is done on purpose. The Trianni have existed for millennia in wild space, and the dangers and technology encountered there are not always what one would expect. They needed a snubfighter to handle all that might be thrown their way should they ever find their backs against a wall.
The Engines & maneuvering thrusters are not Galactic standard. They have adapted technology from one of the myriad races they encountered in their exploration of Wild Space. The craft possesses seven thrusters driven by a solid fuel reaction mass. Amazingly efficient, cheap to maintain, and almost primitive in operation compared to Ion engines. They deliver thrust like a Space Shuttle vomiting fire and particles with wild abandon. The “S-Foil” like wings only serve to maintain stability and maneuverability in the Atmosphere.
Weaponry is Galactic Standard, and while heavy, it is arrayed in a non-conventional fashion for maximum effect.
