Other sitesThe M2 Hercules Starlifter (nickname: "Mama Bird")[1] is a military protean vehicle transport that supports strategic lift and landing operations (i.e. Sword of Hope). It is developed by Crusader Industries.[2] It is the UEE's premier tactical starlifter. The ship's potent combination of capacity, maneuverability, and durability make it the obvious choice in large-scale transport, and a robust weapons package assures your cargo, and crew, gets to where they're going in one piece.[3]
Features
Cargo
Equipment Storage
The M2 has 3,430 KµSCU internal storage, nine 1,500K μSCU storage units (6 in engineering, 3 in the armory), as well as dedicated EVA suit lockers and gun racks in the bridge hallway. The center console in the bridge also houses a small compartment capable of holding 2 small firearms or equipment (such as the multi-tool).[3]
Armory
In addition to the guns racks mentioned above, the M2 has a separate armory with guns racks for pistols, rifles, and even larger weapons (such as the Scourge Railgun). It also includes EVA suit lockers and the three storage units mentioned above in the ceiling of the armory.[3]
Easy Access Components
The ship components can be easily accessed from within the vehicle, allowing you to maintain or repair without the need to go outside the ship.[3]
Weapons
With a pair of forward facing pilot controlled size 5 gun hard-points, which can be discreetly concealed, and a rear facing remote controlled turret that can hold a pair of size 4 guns, the C2 can hit back hard if required.[3]
