Operational profile
Recognition and use
The Charon is a fast ten-ton launch able to carry six passengers through atmosphere or space under a single pilot. Six-gravity acceleration and light crystaliron armor suit urgent transfers through uncertain conditions.
Speed is its only active defense: the launch is unarmed, has negligible cargo space, and carries fuel for one week. It cannot jump and requires a parent ship or local base for sustained operations.
