Harrier-Class Commerce Raider

Externally, the Harrier-Class resembles a bird of prey, with swept-forward wings and a stern prow. The ship has two weapons hardpoints, a turret and a barbett. When she was first launched from Drinax , her hull was painted with the heraldry of the Star Guard, but it is now bare grey metal without idenifying marks. She is streamlined and possesses landing gear, so can land on planets. Fuel and cargo scoops are located in a recess under the Prow. The Harrier contains the fruits of the scientific achievement of her past. Her jump drive can jump closer to a gravity well, has less emissions and is smaller than usual. Her manoeuvre drive is smaller, but still gives the ship Jump-2 range and an impressive 6g of thrust. Her hull is similarly advanced, using smart materials and synthetic compouds to give it greater resillence, compared to a similar imperial hull.
Inside the Harrier is a baroque beauty. Her orginal fittings are mostly intact, and the Drinaxians delighted in luxury and opulence. Every surface is gilded or engraved. The Staterooms have red velvet cusions and soft beds, while the bridge consoles are coverd in dark oak with controls of brass and crystal. She has eight statrooms; four for officres with doubel beds and four for the crew with bunks. There are also eight low berths adjoining the cargo hold, originally intended for prisoner transport. They can be used to store frozen crew or as emerency life suppport.
The Harrier has 30 tons of Cargo space available as well.
