Singleship v1.0 (TL 10)
    Copyright 1996 by Onno Meyer
        
        This ship is one of the smallest possible interstellar craft. One human
    can live in it under conditions only a fanatic spacer will endure, but the
    performance specs are comparable to most other ground-to-hyperspace ships.
        In some places singleships might be illegal due to the lack of backup
    systems, but there will always be people who want small personal starships.
        The singleship carries a multiscanner (5,000 yards nominal range), two
    radars (80 miles) and two cameras. The cargo bay will hold 3 tons, but the
    listed performance assumes a nearly empty hold - a good thing because these
    100 cf are the only place for the workouts a human needs for zero-G living.
    The ship can operate on worlds up to 2 G and from municipal airstrips.
        The ship is a TL 10 vehicle [Mar. 96 errata sheet] with a reactionless
    engine and a hyperdrive from Space.
    
    Structure:  800 cf cheap heavy body (HT 1,200), maximum load 24 tons, very
        good streamlining, seal, three retractable wheels (DR 2, HT 67/134),
        two wings (HT 600) and 2D vectored thrust.
    Propulsion:  22.8-ton fusion rocket (DR 5, HT 100) with two 250-gallon wing
        tanks for 38.7 minutes, a 1.2-ton reactionless thruster (DR 5, HT 100)
        and a hyperdrive generator (DR 5, HT 125).
    Power:  1.5 MW fusion plant (DR 5, HT 25) and 2.4 MWh rechargeable power
        cells (DR 5, HT 12). Excess power 274.9 KW.
    Accomodations:  One cramped quarter, no significant windows.
    Crew Requirements:  One Pilot.
    Armor:  480 points advanced armor, F6/80 B5/40 R6/60 L6/60 T5/40 U6/80
        RW6/60 LW6/60.
    Cargo:  100 cf (and 9.34 cf waste space).
    Accessories:  Burglar alarm, compact fire extinguisher, two-person full
        lifesystem, rad shielding, short-range multiscanner (scan 16, DR 3, HT
        2, electronics), two cheap short-range air-search radars (scan 24/18,
        DR 3, HT 4, electronics), two ALLTVs (+7), mini-airlock, two dumb
        optical minicomps (C4, DR 3, HT 4, electronics), INS (DR 3, HT 6,
        electronics), neural interface jack, three man-months of provisions,
        two tactical radios, two transponders, spotlight (DR 5, HT 2, exposed
        equipment), EM com. Programs: Database (12.6 GB maps), datalink, sensor
        operation (skill 15 or +4), routine vehicle operation (skill 14).
    
    Statistics:  Cost $2,000,000, design mass 11.5 tons, max. payload 12.5
        tons, max. cargo 3 tons, current load 0.5 tons, loaded mass 12 tons,
        size modifier +5, radar signature +6, IR signature +14 (+10 on
        reactionless drive), acoustic signature +6 (+9 on the ground).
    
    Ground Performance:  Speed factor 26, top speed 325 mph (reduced to stall
        speed), acceleration 12.5 mph/s, deceleration 10 mph/s, MR 0.25, SR 4.
    Water Performance:  None.
    Air Performance:  Speed factor 96, stall speed 12.5 mph, top speed 1,200
        mph, accleration 25 mph/s, decleration 15 mph/s, MR 8.25, SR 6, ceiling
        unlimited.
    Space Performance:  Reactionless accleration 0.1 G, fusion acceleration 1.9
        to 2.4 G, fusion delta-v 48 km/s, hyperdrive recharge time 262 minutes.
