[Cargo Shuttle Blueprint] MEC VCS-1 'Atropilosa' Light Freighter

Built using spare production parts from the VF line of fighters, the VCS-1 'Atropilosa' serves a different role from the fighters on which it is based. Rather than mounting any weapons, the Atropilosa is designed for cargo. A large belly-mounted hold combined with relatively powerful VCOIL engines allows the Atropilosa to function as an effective cargo shuttle for stations.

The VCS-1 'Atropilosa' is exactly 200 blocks. The ship's class is named for Vespula atropilosa, a species of yellow jacket native to the western U.S. and Canada that plays an important role in pollination. If you're looking for a station to go with it, there are several in the MEC Signature Catalogue.

Screenshots (besides the auto-generated preview image) show shuttles at true scale - when you use this blueprint to produce shuttles, that's the level of detail you can expect from the final product.

This ship is intended for use as a cargo shuttle blueprint, as it lacks the critical ship components necessary for player control.
