| Description: | ||||||||||
| The Eshpair was one of the
smallest, most common station before the Rebellion. During the
Rebellion many were given basic manuever, armour, and agility to provide self protection. The vessel has 2 docking modules with 5 air/locks and 2 lifts. The lifts go to cargo bay below the dock or a vessel docked above. The ships vehicles are normally docked below docking modules cargo deck, when not in use. Even with only thrusters the station could correct the orbit of itself and attached modules or ships. |

| Various roles
can be assigned to this orbital facility: 1) Communications Station (as is, or with upgrades or additions of meson or JCA communicators). 2) Imbarkment Station - customs for anyworld can operate from such a station making this an elis island. Ships never need land on the surface. 3) Refueling Station - Attack fuel tanks (of virtually any size) and basic refueling equipment. 4) monitor - fully arm the station with missile turrets or a weapons platform. 5) Research station - add labs, offices, and staterooms to the cargo section and replace troops with quarters... 6) Fighter Base - add moorings or bays, staterooms, and launch facilities. 7) Dry Dock Control Center - Attach dry docks for the control of large ship repair or manufacturing. |
