Tri-Star 'Torpedo' Transport

The Tri-Star 'Torpedo' Transport is a large-grid, low-cost interplanetary ship with heavy-lift capability that can be built using materials processed using a basic refinery and a basic assembler. The 3x3 cross-section (7½ meters × 7½ meters) allows this ship to pass through a 4-block high (10-meter) airtight hangar doors opening. An integrated projector makes drydock repairs easy. Propulsion is provided by hydrogen thrusters that are supplied by an O2/H2 generator and 1 large hydrogen tank. This ship includes a survival kit and cryo chamber for life support. The only DLC used is for the transparent LCD that can be replaced by a 1x1 window.

ENTIRELY VANILLA; NO MODS; MINIMAL DLC; PROJECTOR BUILDABLE IN SURVIVAL!

NOTES FOR BUILDING WITH A PROJECTOR IN SURVIVAL
1. Build a projector atop a single armor block that's located on a powered grid.
2. Load the blueprint into the projector; click on the setting to retain the blueprint after construction is complete.
3. Build the blueprint.
4. When completed, grind away the armor block, leaving the projector in place so future repairs can be easily made.
