Constellation Taurus

Template:Infobox vehicle

The Constellation Taurus is the freighter variant of the large multi-crew Constellation series manufactured by Roberts Space Industries (RSI). It trades the side missile racks and the stub fighter for additional cargo space, a cargo release system for quick unloading, and a security hold reinforced with tech plating.^[1]^[2]

Features

Large Cargo Hold: With a focus on cargo transportation, the extended rear hull capable houses 12 hydraulic piston lifts for easy loading, and our patented QuikHitch cargo release system for even easier unloading.
Tractor Beam Turret: The bottom manned turret guns has been replaced with a pair of tractor beams which allows ease of transfer of cargo on and off the ship.
Safety Ejection System: Lets you eject dangerous or unstable cargo while in transit at a moment's notice.
Security Hold: Reinforced with DoubleBlind advanced tech plating, it will stop almost all scans while not leaving a noticeable blind spot.
Weapons: With four Size 5 weapon mounts, a manned turret which can hold a pair of Size 2 guns and missile racks that can carry 24 Size 2 missiles, the Taurus can hit back hard if attacked.
