Artificial Intelligence Transport

Close enough AI guy.

If you look at the original model, the antennae are actually inline with the thrusters so a heat shielded cargo tank way back is pretty reasonable.

I didn't want to add a new funky ship to Disco--I figure that arties would be efficient and having interchangeable functions for hulls is realistic. In this model, only the after part of the "vanes" get altered and I have modified the fuel/cargo tank so it connects by a single hydraulic shaft to the current cruiser hull. It could literally be popped off with a switch of a button and be a cruiser again.

I would love for this to be a ship that could mount cruiser OR transport guns--then it would be a perfect hybrid--serving to gather nomad samples, defending itself or peacefully transiting house space with cargo as the role required.

Perhaps dropping the power plant output slightly could adjust for the extra mass added and the resulting power drain for propulsion.
