Genbu-class cargo ship

''This article is about the freighter. For the transport walker, see Type-92 Genbu''The Genbu-class is a type of standardised light freighter used throughout Imperial Space. Manufactured by Dai Yamatai Starship Solutions, it is one of the most commonly-seen starships in the Empire, and the long-serving, albeit somewhat primitive design is valued by corporations and individuals alike for its reliability and low cost.

Design
The Genbu-class is 27 meters long and is equipped with a single Kawazaki hydrogen thruster for forward propulsion, similar to those used on other light spacecraft. Smaller vector thrusters for steering are also located around the hull.

A crew of two to four are stationed in the forward section of the craft, while the midsection consists of a sealed cargo bay which may be pressurised, allowing the ship to carry live cargo or take on roll-on goods without the need for pressurised containers. Electrical power for the ship comes mostly from solar cells, allowing the hydrogen cell to provide solely for propulsion and FTL purposes. Merely an interstellar-capable ship, Genbu-class ships must move between individual systems until they arrive at their target planet.

Crew amenities are sparse but include a bunk and a galley in addition to the cockpit. The crew consists of a pilot and copilot, with an optional navigator and cargo bay chief.

The Genbu-class is unable to enter atmospheres, limiting it to hauling cargo from orbital installations between planets.
