The Old Bucket
This is the Party Platoon’s ship they use on missions and transport. The Old Bucket is a garbage ship that used to pick up and deliver waste and salvage space wrecks all around the galaxy. The ship has various robotic lifting arms once used for collecting trash and lifting dumpsters or space wrecks. This skill is useful to the Party Platoon on missions and in combat. The ship also is unsuspicious to Meow Order troops, making it easier for the platoon to slip by Meow Order forces or infiltrate them. The ship’s garbage container has been pressurized and fitted with life support to be a space for the platoon and their gear. The Old Bucket is an old, hefty, and unsuspicious craft that serves well as the Party Platoon’s craft.
History
The Old Bucket started its days as a garbage collecting and salvaging ship in a busy asteroid field port in the Mew Sector. Years later, when the Cat wars began, the ship was acquired by the Kitty Rebellion after liberating the asteroid field port. The Old Bucket was then used by the rebels as a makeshift cargo transport. After a few months of serving the Kitty Rebellion, the ship was heavily damaged by a collision with a meow fighter. After some small attempts at fixing the badly damaged craft, The Kitty Rebellion troops decided they shouldn’t waste time and resources on doing a deep fix and keeping the piece of junk. They gave it to General Pepè because he wanted some extra non military ships for infiltrating Meow Order Lines. Pepé got other non military ships that didn’t need fixing, so the Old bucket didn’t get used and ended up just sitting in the corner of the Pico de Galló’s hangar for a while. Often, mechanics took spare parts from the ship to fix other ships and the 216th’s troops started calling it the “Old Bucket.” After the Party Platoon’s assigned shuttle got turned into cat food and they needed a new ship, they saw the junky old trash hauler as a replacement. Wrenches and others from the platoon and the Pico de Gallo’s crew got to work on the beat up ship. After a few weeks of tirelessly working on the ship, the Old Bucket was ready for action with various modifications and improvements. Now, the Party Platoon uses this ship as their own craft for missions and transport.

Modifications
The Old Bucket had various modifications added while it was being fixed up in the Pico de Gallo. The biggest addition to it was transforming the trash container into a passenger cabin for the Party Platoon. To achieve this, the compartment was pressurized and life support, lights, bunks, storage lockers, and a door to the front hold were implemented. Additional systems to get the ship up to military standards were added including a military grade scanner, side mounted laser canons, increased shields, and a sensor jammer.
