T.N.F. Dual-Purpose Utility Drone 'Janus' Mk.III

For operations that may involve a range of environments, with different atmospheres and gravitational pull, the Fleet’s standard drones will be useless in many of them. Also, as most Fleet ships only carry one drone, a captain will have to choose between taking a utility drone, or a mining drone. The Janus utility drone was therefore developed to operate under almost all conditions, and perform both mining and welding tasks. It will fit in most drone hangars with top-mounted connectors. An example of one such hangar is the Nightfall’s cargo bay.

Powered mainly by batteries, the Janus also has a few small nuclear reactors. Should the drone be stranded with depleted batteries, they can be recharged by the reactors. The stored power of the batteries can be seen in the middle of the status screens.



Flight in low-gravity environments:
The Janus utility drone is well suited for both atmospheric and vacuum flight in low-gravity, even with a full cargo container.

Flight in moderate- or high-gravity environments:
In moderate- and high-gravity environments, the total mass of the Janus cannot exceed 57.000 kg, or the upward thrust will not be able to lift it off the ground. Keep an eye on the bottom bar on the status screens.
