The Mercury Shuttlepod has been a very popular shuttlecraft for Zapedzki Shipyards, and we have received a number of requests for an armed military version. As the result of this interest, and a direct comission from the Independant fleet's 12th cavalry division, we are proud to present the 'Talon'; the basic Mercury spaceframe has been strengthened with duranium alloy plates to better resist incoming fire; the largely redundant copilot seat has been replaced by a gunner position that controls a turret-mounted kinetic projectile cannon; the core has been uprated to generate a Power Field; the flight computer has been upgraded with the latest Galactic Shipyards flight system for maneuverability in a combat zone; and a missile launcher pod has been integrated into the hull on the port side. The two passenger seats have been kept by request as the Talon can also feature as a search and rescue shuttle or as a small dropship for surgical strike insertions.
