Features
Scanners
The Cyclone-RN features an exploration and recon package with a dedicated scanner for ground reconnaissance. As with all scanner systems in the game, it will pick up anything with a detectable signature, such as IR or EM. The difficulty of picking up that signal will depend on the item's output and your equipment. It wouldn't tell you if there's a derelict or loot around the corner, but it should be able to tell you that there's a large structure in the distance.
The RN's upgraded radar system will have a longer range and better detection capabilities than the standard Cyclone, along with data banks to store a larger amount of scanned data to help with the mapping of a planet's surface.[2]
Beacons
The Cyclone-RN comes with a supply of small beacons that may be placed to mark important locations on the ground. These beacons give off a strong signal that may be picked up by other vehicles or ships with limited scanner strength; even in dangerous or obscuring conditions, such as a sandstorm.[3]
