Using a 200-ton hull (4 Hull, 4 Structure), the Dejah Thoris is a far trader. It mounts jump drive B, maneuver drive B, and power plant B, giving a performance of Jump-2 and 2-G acceleration. Fuel tankage of 48 tons supports the power plant for 4 weeks and one Jump-2. Adjacent to the bridge is a computer Model 2. The ship is equipped with basic civilian sensors (DM –2). There are ten staterooms and six low berths. The ship has two hardpoints and 2 tons allocated for fire control. Installed on the hardpoints are pulse lasers. There is one air/raft hangar. Cargo capacity is 47 tons. The hull is streamlined and is armored with titanium steel (2 points). Special features include fuel scoops, fuel processors (1 ton), drop tank mount for tanks up to 50 tons (2 tons), luxuries (2 tons), and a medical bay. The ship requires a crew of five: one pilot, one navigator, one engineer, and two gunners. It may also wish to carry a medic and a steward (although the luxuries allow for six high or 15 middle passengers sans steward). The ship can carry six high passengers or 12 middle passengers at double occupancy. The ship costs MCr57.204 (including discounts and fees) and takes 44 weeks to build.
