Not an overly long vessel at around 80 meters. It was operational during the Mid-23rd century and came with the rare feature of skids. These were to allow the vessel to land on ice planets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ship was&nbsp; relatively easy to fly and could be done so by a pilot alone, but the average crew was three to six for flight operations. It is designed for Arctic conditions, however space itself is the harshest of environments. Its primary role was research and the cargo hold could be outfitted for the mission requirements. It could house around thirty scientists in its living quarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It came outfitted with thrusters, which allowed for vertical take off and landing as well as hovering. It was also warp-capable; however, it was slow and could only do warp 1.4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It featured no weapons and the hull while somewhat armoured was done so with environmental conditions in mind rather than combat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Model<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was not one I even remembered, which might also be why it was on sale at the time. However, I think it is interesting that these lesser-known ships are available. The detail on this model is slightly soft when I compare it to a couple of the other ones I own. It is possible that the studio model might not have been super detailed either.\u00a0 It doesn&#8217;t have too many join lines, which are the bane of many die-cast models. Overall I think its a nice addition to the collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:15%\"><h2
