The Outworld Workshops Adder is an ubiquitous small multi-role spacecraft with a tapered-front box hull. It finds use as a civilian utility ship, courier and light hauler. The Adder is often a first ship for smugglers and pirates.

The Adder has a 60-ton (SM +5.5) streamlined wedge hull of length 15 yards (45 feet); 8 feet high, 30 feet width. It has gravitic compensators ($60K).

The crew is a single pilot.

  • Inservice Date: 2914
  • Users: Federation, Independent.
  • Equipment mounts: The Adder can optionally mount one front fixed beam weapon; a fuel scoop; and a class 1, 2 or 3 hyperdrive. It does not have missile pylons.

Adder, Typical Loadout[]

The following statistics show a typical multi-role Adder loadout. It includes a class 2 hyperdrive, an extra fuel tank to support a maximum-range hyperdrive journey, and a 1MW pulse laser in the forward gun mount.

A class 2 hyperdrive gives a maximum hyperspace journey of 14 light years, taking over 7 days and consuming 4 tons of hydrogen fuel.
