Midget Lander v1.0 (TL 10)
        
        This small craft (about as big as a generic car) is a no-frills lander
    for those who don't usually need atmospheric craft or can't afford anything
    better (no space-only starship should be completely without landing craft).
        The lander is build for simple touchdown/takeoff missions on worlds up
    to 1.5 G. The orbital endurance is about 15h (depending on crew size and
    radar use). Sensors are a 8-mile thermograph, a 80-mile radar and an ALLTV.
        The lander is a TL10 vehicle [Dec. 93 errata sheet].
    
    Structure:  200 cf cheap heavy body (HT 500), max. load 6 tons, very good
        streamining, sealed body, three skids (DR 20, HT 56), vertol lift.
    Propulsion:  12t fusion rocket (DR 5, HT 50) with 204 gallons water (DR 5,
        HT 60) for 30 minutes.
    Power:  25 KWh rechargeable power cell (DR 5, HT 4).
    Accomodations:  Four cramped seats, no windows.

    Accessories:  Compact fire extinguisher, laser sensors, 4*15h limited life
        system, radiation shielding, short-range thermograph (scan 20, DR 3, HT
        2, electronics), short-range radar with rangefinder (scan 24, DR 3, HT
        4, electronics), ALLTV (+7), five midget computers (C4, DR 3, HT 2,
        electronics), two GPS, two tactical radios, two transponders, EM com.
        Programs: Database (1.46 GB maps), datalink, sensor operation (skill 15
        or +4), routine vehicle operation (skill 14).

        current load 1 ton, loaded mass 4 tons, size modifier +3, radar
        signature +3, IR signature +11, acoustic signature +6.
    
    Ground and Water Performance:  None.

        mph/s, deceleration 10 mph/s, MR 2, SR 2, ceiling unlimited.
