Description
The Koi Heavy Transport (WiGE) was produced by Wakazashi Enterprises in mid-31st Century due to Coordinator Theodore Kurita's reforms to try bring Draconis Combine transportation infrastructure to modern standards.
Koi is the flagship of Wakazashi's efforts to do its part for the Combine. The Heavy Transport was seen a large improvement for economy's need for fast cargo capable vehicles. In 3061, Koi's production line was temporary halted due to fire at the plant. The officials with Wakazashi suspected that their rivals at Pesht Motors were behind what they felt was sabotage. However, production continued and was widely accepted by civilian corporations and as well planetary militias who saw craft as means move equipment around without the use of expensive DropShips.[1]
Cargo & Capacities
The Koi has cargo capacity of 123.5 tons, with doors front and back for unloading cargo. The craft has been equipped with an Amphibious Chassis, which allows it to float and unload it cargo if need be from water's edge. The ship is protected by 3 tons of BAR 6 grade commercial armor.
Variants
- Ryu Heavy Transport - Wakazashi seeing the Koi's popularity with planetary militia increase, they created an armed and slightly up armored version of the Koi.
Custom Variants
- Nishikigoi - Based on the Koi, the Nishikigoi is best described as a unique experimental variant. This ship, an extensively armed transport, was employed on the world of Kaumberg in 3074. The craft has 5.5 tons of BAR 8 Rated Commercial armor and four turret mounted Thunderbolt 10 launchers. It also has been given four Chaff Pods mounted on the rear sides of the aircraft. The Nishikigoi's cargo capacity was reduced from the Koi's 123.5 tons to only 81.5 tons. Its engine has been given a Supercharger, which has increased the craft's speed. Also the ship can be employed as a command ship, using its 8 tons of Communication Equipment. BV (2.0) = 1,524[2]
