Krunkel-class Shuttle

The Krunkel-class is a class of durable shuttlecraft built by the Infinite FleetWorks company for Trident Foundries.

Description
Krunkel-class shuttles are carried by many medium- and large-sized Trident Foundries vessels as a method of personnel transfer, most notably the Solaris- and Independent-class ships. They are typically used for more hazardous missions that would not suit the smaller Mersu-class shuttlepod or the newer Krunkel II-class shuttle.

This class of shuttle has extendable impulse thrusters that greatly improves manueverability and speed when deployed.

The Krunkel-class shuttle comes in two variants; unarmed and lightly armed. The unarmed variant has a small amount of shielding, while the armed variant sacrifices some of its shield capacity for the addition of two low-yield plasma cannons flanking the cockpit.
