T.N.F. Transport Shuttle 'Icarus' Mk.V

While assault squads of strike infantry are delivered to combat zones by dropships, the Fleet also needs to transport personnel under much safer conditions. The Icarus transport shuttle is a lightly armored transport with an unpressurized passenger compartment and pressurized cockpit. It is one of the Fleet's earliest designs, and is currently in its mark 5 version. Its primary use is as a personnel transport between ships or stations, but its dual gatling guns makes it a useful auxillary combat landing craft in a pinch.


General characteristics:
-Crew: 1x Pilot + 6x Passengers
-Length: 9 m
-Width: 6,5 m
-Height: 5 m

-2x Gatling guns

Features:
-Cockpit display showing the ship’s status using MMaster's LCD 2 script and Whiplash141’s Artificial Horizon Script.

-Room for six personnel in the hold + one pilot

Known issues:
-In order to make the rear ramp not affect flight, "share inertia tensor" is turned on. This will give you an "unsafe grid" warning, but has not caused problems for me yet.

Acknowledgements:
-MMaster's LCD 2 script.
-The screens showing the planet's horizon and the ship's heading is using Whip's Artificial Horizon Script, made by Whiplash141.
