Small Craft (Total Cargo Space 2.2 dTon)
2 x AK Modular SR Plasma Drone, 10 M Solars, 6 dTon Flattened Sphere
Only the tank has heavier armour, and nothing has a heavier weapon! Battery powered, but it is not intended for extended missions. Drone for remote operation, further decreasing accuracy by -2.
(6G/Move:2551, dDR:30, dHP: 21, SM:+4, Endurance: 100 rounds, 48 F cells)
Weapons: 1x Fixed Plasma Cannon
1 x AK Modular SR Combo Fighter, 12 M Solars, 6 dTon Flattened Sphere
This battery powered fighter has two missiles and a beam, but minimal armour.
(6G/Move:2201, dDR:10, dHP: 19, Cargo Space: 0.03 dTons, SM:+4, Endurance: 200 rounds, 58 F cells)
Weapons: 1xBeam, 2xMissile, Crew:1
1 x AK Modular SR Fighter Mk II, 13 M Solars, 6 dTons Flattened Sphere
The same as the previous small fighter but with batteries reorganized to fit more in, allowing a more powerful weapon, this version has 4 banks of 24 F Cells plus one backup cell for life support providing a range of 8 million miles. The smaller size of the cells allows for greater drive and hence greater armour and weapons than the fusion cell fighters. They work very well in planetside combat roles, being effective tank killers.
(8G/Move:3225, dDR:29, dHP: 22, SM:+4, Endurance: 100 rounds, 97 F cells)
Weapons: 1xBeam Weapon, Crew:1
1 x AK Modular Fighter, 16 M Solars, 6 dTon Flattened Sphere
This high speed fighter can outrun missiles. It is otherwise lightly armed and armoured.
(8G/Move:2343, dDR:10, dHP: 18, SM:+4)
Weapons: 1xPulse, Crew:1
2 x AK Light Modular Tank, M$ 13 Solars, 6 dTon Flattened Sphere
Fully space capable, this vehicle is like a slow heavily armed fighter.
(2G/1918.5 Move, dDR:65 All around, HP:25, SM:+4, ASig:-2)
Weapons: 1xBeam, 1xGatling Laser, Crew:2 (Life Support:2)
3 x AK Modular APC, 6.6 M Solars, 6 dTons Flattened Sphere
The same size as the small fighters, this is actually a small spacecraft with life support for 5, a sickbay and heavy armour. Capable of supporting small insertions for long periods of time, it has limited cargo space. It has a sickbay and Bunks as life support for 5, but an carry 10 for insertions.
(2G/Move:1607, dDR:49, dHP:22, Cargo Space: 0.6 dTons, ASig: -2, SM:+4, Air Speed 3214 mph),
Weapons:1x Gatling Laser
1 x AK Modular Surveyor, 9M, 6 dTon Flattened Sphere
This small craft has a sickbay and a single biology laboratory, and life support for 5 members. It also has a setup for dehydrating food to preserve it.
(1G/Move:804, dDR:10, HP: 132/170, Cargo Space: 0.4 dTons, SM:+4)
Sickbay, Laboratory (Biological), Life Support: 5, Weapons: 1x Gatling Laser, Crew:4, Endurance: 22 Weeks
1 x AK Modular Speeder, 5.5 M Solars, 6 dTons Flattened Sphere
This is more of an enclosed Air raft to be used in the 6 dTon flattened sphere bays as an auxiliary cargo boat with life support for the two crew. The new one has a patented mini-fusion reactor.
(2G/Move 1270, dDr:12, dHP:16, Cargo space: 3.5 dTons, SM:+4)
You have not specified which fighters you have taken, which you probably should, but these are the options.
You and the survey craft are currently in the upper atmosphere, say 25,000 t to 40,000 ft. They would like to cut that to about 5,000 ft to 10,000 ft to get under most of the smoke clouds.
