Collecting samples isn't really research, but I won't argue semantics.

It is research.
For example, I want to study the vegetation on the side of the roads in God knows what country and write an article about them in a science magazine, whatever. Do I have to take a whole truck (cruisers)? Why can't I just take my SUV (fighter) or my 4x4 (bomber). Anyway, I made this topic hoping that it will be fixed in the next version. I decided to use the FL ID and write my own infocard.

Researchers are supposed to be scientists and such. They're not supposed to be involved in fights. They're supposed to be "researching" stuff.
EDIT: For the truck, SUV and 4x4 analogy ... allow a fighter with NO guns. trucks, SUV's and 4x4's are not tanks.

For now, I suggest you get a freighter instead. Freighters are more fit for this kind of work.
Agree
