Description Rehaet Alestoven Shuttle

Affiliation: Covenant of the Liberated Celestis(CLC)

Typ: Multifunctional Cargo Shuttle (MCS)

Length: 12,84 m

Width: 11,71 m

Height: 2,71 m
Engine unit(s):
Sublight engine: Clerehaet Deilor Er Rehad

Hyperdrive: -

Hyperdrive system: -

Shield System: Lucidum Er Rehad

Armament: -

Complement (maximum): -

Standard Complement:-

Role:

interplanetary cargo and passenger shuttle (standard)

prospector (with mission module)

scout (with mission module)

etc.

Cargo Capacity: 1x Class-I-STC (can be replaced by a similarly sized mission module),

5,2 m³ internal storage room for crew equipment

Specificity:


  • The Rehaet Alestoven shuttles are the Covenant's standard shuttle craft for orbital and interplanetary missions in the 4th century AJR.

  • Although these shuttles are also used for cargo and personnel transport in the Libertarian Guardian Fleet (LGF), Reahaet Alestoven are primarily civilian vehicles.


  • The main task of these shuttles is to transport cargo and passengers in the orbital and interplanetary area. In addition to the three-person crew consisting of pilot, co-pilot and flight technician, up to 6 passengers can be taken on board as standard on short (speaker's note: orbital) routes.

  • For freight transport, a single Class I standard transport container (STC) of the CLC, as shown in the overview in the side view of the Rehaet Alestoven, can be transported.


  • The sublight engine is a Clerehaet Deilor Er Rehad (speaker's note: gravimetric engine for shuttles type 1), which, apart from the lack of armament, is the clearest indication that this is a civilian vehicle, since the LGF uses ion engines as sublight engines for all its vehicles. Whereas gravimetric engines are generally used in the civilian sector of the Covenant.

  • As is common in civilian spaceflight for small spaceships, the Rehaet Alestoven is also equipped with HPESC (speaker's note: High-Performance Energy Storage Cells), the Covenant designation is Neser, as its sole energy source, instead of the oversized fusion reactors that are common on large Covenant spaceships and characteristic of them. The range of the Neser allow a range of around 43 AU at a maximum speed of 0.25c. Then the energy cells must be recharged.


  • Instead of the Class I STC, a Rehaet Alestoven can also transport a mission module of the same size. This makes these shuttles multifunctional mission vehicles:

  • Thus, the mission module can contain an additional passenger compartment for 20 to 40 people, depending on the equipment. Thus, the Rehaet Alestoven can be used as a passenger shuttle for longer interplanetary distances.

  • The mission module can also contain various sensor arrays or even complete laboratory equipment that will allow the Rehaet Alestoven to be used as a research vehicle.

  • Alternatively, the mission modules can be brought to a planetary surface by the Rehaet Alestoven, where they can serve as a temporary research station.


  • Rehaet Alestoven are basically unarmed and cannot be subsequently armed. As a defence, due to the small size and manoeuvrability of these shuttles, a Type One Shuttle Defence Shield is used.


Nesori Shuttle

Affiliation: Covenant of the Liberated Celestis(CLC)

Typ: Interstellar Short-Range Shuttle (ISRS)

Length: 20,38 m

Width: 14,17 m

Height: 3,15 m
Engine unit(s):
Sublight engine: Clerehaet Deilor Er Menant

Hyperdrive: Su Deilor Estoant lacad Er

Hyperdrive system: interstellar

Shield System: Lucidum Er Menant

Armament: -

(optional:

1x Vicinus Spatium Tormento (VST), cal. 140 mm)

Complement (maximum): -

Standard Complement: -

Role:

interstellar short-range shuttlecraft

Cargo Capacity:

42m² large interior

of which 12,5 m²/30 m³ can be used for cargo

(maximum/when no passengers are on board/corresponds to the volume of a Class I STC)

Specificity:


  • The Nesori shuttles are the Covenant's standard shuttle craft for short-range interstellar missions in the 4th century AJR.

  • As with the Rehaet Alestoven shuttles, the main task of these shuttles is to transport cargo and passengers.

  • In addition to the four-person crew of pilot, co-pilot, flight technician and communications/sensor officer, up to 40 passengers can be taken on board. When used as a lifeboat during evacuations, however, up to 100 people can be transported.

  • Unlike the Rehaet Alestoven shuttles, the Nesori shuttles have a hyperdrive with a range of 250 ly. However, these shuttles are rarely used over distances of more than 25 ly. The disadvantage is that the cargo capacity of the Nesori shuttles is somewhat limited compared to the Rehaet shuttle.


  • Although the cargo area of the Nesori Shuttle also comprises 12.5 m³, which corresponds to the volume of a Class I STC, but a Nesori Shuttle cannot transport an STC, but only general cargo, as the capacity is distributed over different storage areas.

  • In addition, the maximum cargo capacity is only available if passenger transport is dispensed with as far as possible. A maximum of 5-6 passengers can be accommodated in addition to the maximum cargo. However, the conditions on board are then usually already quite cramped.


  • In addition to their transport tasks, the Nesori shuttles are also designed for research and exploration purposes. Therefore, unlike the Rehaet shuttles, they are equipped with extensive sensor arrays as standard and not only with navigation sensors.


  • As a primarily civilian spacecraft, the Nesori shuttles are also equipped with gravimetric propulsion rather than the ion engines commonly used in the LGF.

  • Unlike military units, the energy supply is provided by Neser (speaker's note: CLC designation for High-Performance Energy Storage Cells) instead of fusion reactors.

  • However, like most hyper-flight-capable spacecraft, Nesori shuttles have Naquahdah generators as emergency power sources, which can be used to either recharge the Nesers or directly power the shuttle, depending on the situation.


  • As said, Nesori shuttles are actually civilian vehicles. Nevertheless, they can be retrofitted with a ventrally mounted VST turret (speakers note: As can be seen in the bottom view of the Nesori Shuttle in the overview at the top right). Armed Nesori shuttles serve as escorts for their respective motherships and are mainly used on Aurigia-class explorers.
