Kushan 'Prosperity' Resource Transport

(Produced for the ZeroG Renegade CV Challenge)

After the Homeworld War, a number of Resource Collectors were made to strip mine many star's worth of asteroid belts. Over time, all of these would be replaced with the more nimble worker, however many of these ships had a nice amount of space in the hull to *just* cross the line to hyperspace. LiirHra was key in the conversion of these old Providence's into functional and survivable transports.

While some cargo hauling capacity was sacrificed, the ship is also able to haul ships and hover vessels in it's hold, which make up for the shortcomings of slimmed capacity. In addition, the ship is far more capable in the event of combat, featuring 4 hidden rocket turrets to ruin any Turan's day looking for an easy mark! Most of the lighter frame has been replaced for steel where possible, and the added thrust capacity helps in ensuring the ship could lift off in most planetary situations. Lastly, the greatest boon to this ship also comes with a shield generator, which even with a limited powerplant, can power in a emergency to protect the ship of a bigger threat.

Sadly, there is little space to spare now, with most of the engineering compartment stuffed to the brim with all manner of devices. The safe room in the original Providence has been upgraded to be airtight, along with featuring additional seating and an emergency console to move the ship. However, this means the CPU tier for this ship does breach tier 3, but for what you get, it does ensure you get where you going safe and sound!
