XKH Bulk Freighter

The XKH bulk freighter is a highly adaptable freighter series developed by
Kashan Systems as a cheap ship that is capable of performing a wide variety
of tasks. The standarrd XKH is marketed as a bulk freighter and sold to the
general populace in the Palvar Sector and surrounding areas.

A standard XKH is constructed as a bulk freighter, for hauling large sums of
cargo from place to place. This is mainly because the biggest demand is
currently for bulk freighters for shipping war materials from Kashan to both
the Imperial and Republic systems in the sector. However, there are several
other variants of the XKH including the XKH-PL (passenger liner version),
and the XKH-TT (troop transport version).

The stats for the XKH-PL are the same as the XKH except for the following:
D6 and d20
Craft: Kashan Systems' XKH-PL
Passengers: 1,050 (passengers), 25 (flight attendents)
Cargo Capacity: 2,500 metric tons
Consumables: 3 months
Cost: 805,000 (new), 450,000 (used)

The stats for the XKH-TT are the same as the XKH except for the following:
D6 and d20
Craft: Kashan Systems' XKH-TT
Passengers: 5,000 (troops)
Cargo Capacity: 1,500 metric tons
Consumables: 2 months
Cost: 850,000 (new), 480,000 (used)

All three of the main XKH variants are identical when viewed from the
outside. The XKH is a long, tube-shaped vessel with massive pylons
extending from either side to support the cargo compartments (or
passenger comparments depending upon the particular variant). The
crew compartment is located just aft of the bridge and near both of
the double laser turrets. The volume of the main fuselage is taken
up by the massive Setec 11S ion drive engines which are poorly
powered by the KXH's small reactor.

The Palvar Defense Force has several of the XKH and XKH-TT vessels
in its fleet pulling both cargo runs and participating in combat
situations when needed.
