The Shae'A'Kree Class Corvette. Is an older patrol corvette manufactured by the TAE Unified Fleet Systems. It has Impressive acceleration, and can cover 6 parsecs per week on average in Hyperspace. Its facilities, hangers, and workshops allow it to handle a wide range of duties, including Colony Support, disaster response, and troop delivery/support missions.

It's weapons are designed for close in combat, and overwhelming lighter warships with salvos of missiles, and heavy fire from it's rail guns. It n hammer anything smaller than itself to pieces in rapid order while being able to catch most modified commercial ships used by smugglers, and criminal forces.

---

the ship for sale is an older military vessel with standard engines, and drives. it could be upgraded with more powerful drives, which would subtract cargo space, and require more fuel to operate for any length of time.

Currently it can carry bolt on fuel tanks, or be fitted with docking clamps to carry extra modules without needing it's hyperdrive upgraded.

Note:

Assume it's lasers have been upgraded to With heavy plasma cannon since it was launched, the weapons have  the same stats but perform better in hyperspace than lasers.

a single hardpoint is open, it can mount a Turret, or barbette but  it's bay slots are currently full.

You can add
 the ship has extra room devoted for improving it's Hyperdrive, It's FTL speed and thrust would drop to 5 parsecs, but it would be able to operate for very long times in Realspace, or maintain its full cruising speed without stopping to skim fuel, or finding a refuel point.

The console housing rang like a bell as Nera rapped it with her knuckles. She had made her name commanding boats like this and there was a comforting familiarity too it. She drew her communicator from her belt and established a link.

"On the whole, I like it.  The medical facilities are less than hoped for.  We could use an autodoc, an expert medic/3 programme might be very useful, and some cryo-berths for when we need to use medical slow...  Otherwise, a very nice tool for our purposes."

I like it, is 30 tonnes our max weight in the hangers or is it 60?   We could possibly use a squadron of fighters with two shuttles, if it is more.   fighters and shuttles are also available...especially Valkiir fighters...The Valkiir love to fly, and love to fly fast agile dangerous as hell toys.    Make the squadron Valkiir with Cain as Senior CO or a CAG like on a carrier.   I think one of the workshops should be for the engine room and one of the others should be converted to another barracks so that we can carry more marines.   Being as I am WEPS, I wish we had portable missile pods both for extra long distance punch and for refills, these refills would be missiles of differing payloads and makes or types.

.... Hmmm and this, ship is belonging to CASAR?  I think your Valkiir fighters sound most interesting, Tal. I would enjoy very much the opportunity to try that. If we are investigating rather than direct Attack it might be wise to set asside work areas for analysis and evaluation of the clues we find, some chemistry or other labs may be useful. Though I am no expert, Prometheus may have advice.

Alex explores the ship checking every nook and cranny as he does. In some places he takes a little time learning more.

Will look for any signs of Psionic interface in any equipment or the ship itself.
He takes a little time to focus himself then then lays his hand on the ship itself learning what he can.

T'risa's voice sounded over the comms "I concur. I think this ship suits our purposes. Perhaps a little slower than we might need, but it's an acceptable compromise given how much space we'll need to upgrade the parts we do need and I like having reasonable cargo space. I'll have Sv'iim start the arrangements."

So have we decided on either a fgtr. squadron or two shuttles?   I really like the idea of more space for more marines, knocking out a wall or two for more shuttle space, as well as labs for analysis etc. and I just had a thought, we could use the state rooms for crew quarters as well as our quarters.   What I mean is, taking two or three of the state rooms, knocking the walls out and then adding triple bunks.   One state room is for the captain, xo and the ladies within the party and two for the men within our party, doubled bunk.

Makes his way to the ship impressed so far with everything that he has seen from the outside as he follows the group inside for the tour of the ship.  It had been many years since he had been on board a ship of this size though he wasn't unfamiliar with much of the layout.  Years with the marines, working with boarding parties, and staying on ship for months at time were some of the most fun he's had in his life.  It seemed like a lifetime ago.

"While my own piloting skills are adequate I think I'll leave the important decisions to those better qualified to make them. For my part I like what I see here and look forward to taking her for a spin around the block"

Continuing the tour he begins to think about his role on board ship, an older man among this younger crew, he felt a little out of place amongst these folks however he keep his demeanour professional as always.

T'risa sighed heavily as she approached the ship merchant. "Greetings. I take it you've seen that we have placed the money in escrow with a view to generating a purchase order to take the Shae'Akree class vessel off your hands. We have a few...additional requests in mind for her and we were wondering if you and your team could handle the work." T'risa looked curiously at the merchant "Time would be an issue. We need the work done as soon as is possible. If necessary, I can provide additional staff to help refit the ship."

" You must be K'mahda....Your agent sent the paperwork over....I'e setup everything for ya. You can take possession of it tonight if you like..That kid is a damn fine with a set of papers." The owner smiled and chuckled as she motioned everyone into a lounge and had drinks and food brought in. he big woman towered over almost everyone, and wore her military grade cybernetics like a badge of honor. " I have a stockpile of parts, and jigs on hand. So a time from depends on what ya want and how long it will take ot fabricate the parts." We just finished scrapping out an old Heavy cruiser the fleet parted out...so I ave guns, and sensors to spare....and that hull is a modular design so things go in and come out pretty slick.

"I am indeed. T'risa K'mahda. Let me raise some potential issues we've noticed. My first concern is the onboard computer. It's an old design." she reached for her PDA, flashing some designs over to the broker "As you can see, we need a much more advanced design. These particular specifications are non negotiable. Additionally, we need the medbay upgraded to be able to support all species and to modern standards with a few emergency low berths, just in case. Weaponry, sensors and shield upgrades would also be welcome. We want some of the cargo space turned into a mecha bay. The Science station and sensors could also use a refit. I'm also willing to hear some ideas you have for making the ship faster." T'risa paused for a moment to let her requests sink in. "And we're also looking at reworking the shuttle bays. Potentially to house three fighters and a weaponised shuttle of some description." T'risa leaned forward "So with our requests in mind. What can you offer us? As I said before. I'm much more concerned with time frame and availability."

Rising and bowing to the broker, his skin colour showing the dark green of friendliness "Pipiltin, Cuappetlatl-Ocelopetlatl, Ilhuicac-Yaotlahueliloque, Itzcuauhtli Mixtzin gives you greetings good sir."  His tongue flickering to taste the mood of the broker, and his skin flashing briefly into the bright blue of amusement, "Please call me Mixtli, or Bruce, if you prefer....  Assuming that you are able to supply these items, as the ship's surgeon, I'd like to see the sickbay equipped with a TL14 Autodoc, 6 Medical Cryoberths, and 3 Servitor Robots with Medic/2 loaded.  Also, a bulk supply of drugs and other necessaries for it to function at TL14.  I can supply a list of the drugs and other items at need."  As T'risa had done, Mixtzin allows a moment for his requests to sink in.  Smiling he asks, "Do you think you will be able to meet this specification?"

While the others are at the ship brokers and all, Tal will slip out and find a gaming house within the city.   As he is leaving he will text Nera and tell her where he is going.
