Corsair

The Drake Corsair is a multi-crew explorer that gives up defenses for a focus on versatility and defensive weaponry. With asymmetric, convertible wings and a large cargo hold, the Corsair adapts gracefully to unfamiliar atmosphere, combat situations, and hot landing zones. Up to four crew can be accommodated in the Corsair's functional quarters, and a full complement of scanning suites along with a pair of quantum fuel tanks provide the means and method of exploring distant, dangerous stars.
