Anvil Aerospace Terrapin ship overview

The Anvil U4A-3 Terrapin is a deep-space armored scout ship utilized by the United Empire of Earth Navy (UEEN). Outfitted with sensitive long-range scanners, it is used for long duration reconnaissance and leg patrol missions where crewmembers might need to be separated from support facilities for weeks at a time.

Key features

• Reconnaissance: The Terrapin is used by the UEEN for overwatch, long-endurance picketing, and to add reconnaissance capabilities to the fleet, as well as extending the Navy's ability to provide a patrol presence to border systems that couldn't be allocated capital ships or large fighter garrisons for defence
• Explorer: It is a favored explorer ship among UEE military veterans who opt to continue flying after their service, many of them having already come to know its reliability, ease of repair and never-say-die attitude. As secondary roles, it is said that the Terrapin can be used for both Search and Rescue and as Troop Transport
• Cooling Mechanism: Due to the Terrapin's thick armor, the ship has insufficient capacity to vent its heat. To vent this excess heat, the armor panels can be retracted, a mechanic that has been described as 'coming up for air'
