UESC - Mule Mk.5 - Medium Mining Hauler

Description
This is the 5th update of the UESC Mule Mk.4 . There have been some minor changes to the outside of the ship (minor armor changes and solar panels, lights, cameras), but the interior changes are extensive.

This version has a redesigned bridge, with a better lay, where all the LCD screens are clearly visible from the cockpit. The conveyor system has been totally redesigned to bring it away from the outer hull (eliminates the need for catwalks to cover the conveyor system). The engineering section has been totally redesigned, 2 refineries (4 efficiency each), 4 assemblers (1 productivity each), plus 7 batteries now fill the space. The large reactor was removed and 8 small reactors have been scattered along the conveyor system giving the ship better redundancy.

UESC Mule
Originally designed as a mining hauler for the UESC, the ship has received numerous updates over the years that allow it to handle a variety of rolls. From mining hauler, drone carrier to light carrier the UESC Mule can do it all.

Precisely the idea, or well, same ilk.
She was, after all, designed as a mining hauler.

The ship has just enough protection and fire power to keep scouting parties away, but if anything that is a potential threat to the ship appear the standard tactic is to Jump to safety.

Now that being said, in a pince she can be used as a cheap makeshift carrier. Jump in at the edge of the combat zone, deploy fighters, Jump out. In theory she can transport 8 fighters.

No version of the Mule was ever supposed to survive any kind of direct assault.
Exposed cargo containers are there for convenience at the docking bay.

One hit in... well, just about anywhere would send that cargo spewing all over space.
And to avoid this, it has twin jump drives. :)
Its turrets were only ever supposed to swat meteors and deter one or two small ships, as well as dealing with any would-be theives at the port.
