LAC-10C Crimson Dove - Cargo Aircraft

A small large grid cargo ship.

The LAC-10C Crimson Dove is a small transport designed to operate in harsh atmospheres. It has been built prioritizing ease-of-use and cost-efficiency, while providing adequate autonomy and crew comfort. The Crimson Dove is the sister craft of the LAC-10E Columba, the expeditionary variant.

The intended role of the LAC-10C is to run trading routes between ground stations. As a cargo transport, the LAC-10C has a higher MTOW than the E variant and can be easily modified to further ncrease payload. More thrusters can be installed under the snub wings or replacing armor blocks, and some side thrusters can be re-oriented downwards.

The Crimson Dove is equipped with a survival kit and pressurized cabin, so it can support an engineer in planets lacking oxygen. However, it has no O2 nor power generation, requiring some form of outpost or base with a power source and H2/O2 generator. It has no weapons either, but the LAC-10 design allows for easy modification or replacement of the ship's systems to suit user needs.
