    Cargo:  None, but 259 cf access space could be used.
    Accessories:  Twelve dischargers (in the pods), compact fire extinguisher,
        improved IR cloaking, laser sensors, 34*12 hours limited lifesystem,
        radar locator, improved sound baffling, radical stealth, two extreme-
        range thermographs (scan 22, DR 3, HT 20, electronics), two medium
        radars with rangefinder (scan 22, DR 3, HT 10, electronics), two ALLTVs
        (+5, DR 3, HT 4, electronics), four HUDWACs with virtual panorama,
        cargo ramp, three microframes (C4, DR 3, HT 12, electronics), dual
