Note: For the examples of spacecraft design posted on this blog, I mostly use 2ed. Mongoose Traveller rules, but some examples using 1ed. rules will persist until they can be upgraded.

Look at the side column for variant rules I use in my campaign.

20dt, TL10, 8 passenger Launch

Launch

Also termed a life boat, this craft uses a 20–ton hull. Imperial travel codes mandate that passengers traveling on commercial starships and sub-craft SHALL be protected from radiation, so this model has AF6 armor (equivalent to radiation shielding, but cheaper).
The Imperial Trade Security Bureau likes these craft for low threat environments, and the Traveller's Aid Society endorses this model for 4-diamond safety rating.
Commonly used across the Imperium, but best known as the standard craft for "Fat" traders and upwardly mobile commercial space interests.

Hull (TL10):
20 Tons with streamlining (20dt, 1.1Mcr.)
     HP = 8
     AF6 Crystal-Iron armor (7.5%vol.) (3dt, 0.33Mcr.)
Total Hull: {AF6, 20dt, 17dt avail., 1.43McrA~1.073McrImp.}

Basic Ship Systems Power Requirement = 4EP

Engineering (TL10):
     Gravitic M-drive, 3G thrust, 6EP, 0.6dt, 1.2Mcr.
     Fusion-8 P-Plant,  10EP, 1dt, 0.5Mcr.
     Fuel: 1dt (4 weeks)
     space for maintenance: 0.4dt
Total Engineering: {3G thrust, 4 weeks duration, 4EP avail., 3dt, 1.7McrA~1.275McrImp.}

Bridge Control (TL9):
     Small Craft cockpit for 1,DM-4, 1.5dt, 0.5MCr.
          +Holographic controls, +0.125Mcr.
     Computer Model/1fib, R5, ---, 0.045Mcr.
Total Controls: {DM-4, Init.+2, 1.5dt, 0.67Mcr9~0.469McrImp.}

Airlock, 1ea., 1dt, 0.2McrA~0.15McrImp.

Acceleration Couch, 8ea., 4dt, 0.24McrA~0.18McrImp.

Cabin Space, 2 units, 3dt, 0.15McrA~0.113McrImp.

Cargo: 4.5dt (ventral compartment)

Software: Maneuver/0 Library/0

Totals: {AF6, Init.+2, DM-4, 0EP avail., 20dt, 3.26MCrImp.}

This common ship’s boat is a fast and flexible small craft, which can be used as a fuel skimmer or transport. Common variants install more passenger space instead of comfort, or mount anti–personnel weapons on the outer hull. This is a standard design for which the 10% discount applies (see Core Rule Book page 114).

Finally acquired the Mongoose Publishing title, "High Guard", new edition (2nd?)

On September 12, 2016, I acquired a PDF of Mongoose Publishing's "High Guard" for their 2nd edition product line.

I've had a chance to read through the design rules, and while there is much to be admired, it will take some getting used to; I also haven't the time to convert all my ship designs.

So I will gradually phase in the new rules in my campaign, and on the remote chance I have the time, I may try to do a proper review of the MG book. For now, everyone will have to see the new rules implemented in new ship designs.

Right away, here is an irritating point in the new rules:

The minimum 1 dton fuel size for power plants is unfair to the design of very small spacecraft.

If I design a minimum high performance spacecraft, the smallest is likely this:


Small Craft, 10dt.

10dt Hull, HP=4, 0.5Mcr.

Cockpit (DM-4) 1.5dt, 0.01Mcr.
     Space for electronics (1dt)
     [____________________]

Power Requirement for Ship systems: 2EP

Gravitic Maneuver Drive, 6G thrust, 6EP, 0.6dt, 1.2Mcr.

Fusion Power Plant (TL8), 10EP, 1.0dt, 0.5Mcr.

Fuel Bunker 1.0dt
     Strict interpretation of new rules = 4 weeks duration.
     Jim's house rules interpretation = 40 weeks duration.

Payload: 4.9dt.

Total Ship: AF0, HP4, DM-4, 6g thrust, 2EP avail., 10dt, 2.21Mcr.

Streamlining adds 0.05Mcr.

This scout is usually dropped into a system with one of Baron Jetson's modified 1000dt Bulk Carriers. During the action against Belgardian Sojourn authority, the Baron procured and deployed ten of these with the Particle Beam barbette installed. Three of the first ten of these vessels, numbers 3, 5, & 7, were later refitted with variant engine system noted below.
