Operational profile

Recognition and use

The Proteus Cargo is a streamlined fifty-ton boat built to move modules, freight, and stores between a parent ship, stations, and planetary surfaces. A two-person cockpit, six-gravity acceleration, light armor, and a 34.55-ton hold make it an efficient heavy lighter.

It is unarmed, has only one week of endurance, and cannot jump. The boat depends on its carrier or local facilities for maintenance, protection, and interstellar transport.
