This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on a website or the like. The files at omeyer.gmxhome.de are down until I fix the automatic PDF generation, which should be one of these days - see sourceforge.net/projects/gurpsml Onno Meyer, 2012-10-08
Fast Courier Mk.VII, Medevac Variant v1.0 (TL14) Copyright 2012 by Onno Meyer The Fast Courier carries a few people and a few boxes of equipment to the stars. In this case, the Mk.VII carries three automeds to transport critically injured patients to core world hospitals. The starship has a cylindrical hull with small delta fins. The flight deck contains two consoles for the pilot and the astrogator, and a seat for a surgeon. The next compartment contains three bunks, the head, and a tiny galley. An airlock with decontamination facilities leads to the medical bay with the automeds. If required, the surgeon can direct the automeds to perform complicated medical procedures. It takes 7 hours to recharge the power cell for a hyperspace entry. Subassemblies: Body +5. Powertrain: Two 180,000-lb. mega reactionless thrusters; 1,800-ton hyperdrive; two 150,000-lb. contragrav generators; two 25,000-kW total conversion reactors; 648,000,000-kWs rechargeable power cell.
