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.

Station 12 vessels, 4ea., 20dt Gig, TL12, AF0, 7G thrust, Pass.=2, Cargo=6.6dt, (5.967McrImp.*4)+4.102McrImp.

Station 12 has several small craft for various purposes, and among these are four 20dt Gigs of the Musketeer class. 

"SG Porthos" and "SG Aramis" are assigned to Station Security and have their weaponry upgraded to triple pulse laser turrets (Dmg.6-16, +2.8McrImp.). 

"SG Athos" and "SG d'Aragnan" are assigned to Station Maintenance and have their turrets replaced with external docking clamps (+0.3McrImp.); other vessels or containers up to 30dt size may be towed (at 2G thrust). "SG Athos" has the entire cargo area taken up with 1ea. advanced workshop (TL15, 6dt, +0.9McrImp.) and small stores storage. "SG d'Artagnan" has reduced cargo (4.6dt) and added 4ea. Acceleration Couches (2dt, +0.102McrImp.).

The Gee Spacely shipyards on Luna produced an enormous number of these vessels in the years after the fall of Earth to the Vilani. They were built as utility craft for use in the Sol system to repair the damage to the various outer system installations antebellum. Many have been exported and are desirable because of the reliability and inexpensive cost to purchase and maintain. The example below was imported into the Eridani system by Embraer Aeroespacial Interestelar, GBMH from Earth/Terra (Sol system).

10dt Launch

This vessel has had a larger airlock installed and higher tech seating installed; it is used for transporting workers and their personal tools to various work sites assigned by the company. For longer commutes, a 20dt launch fitted with cabins is used.
