Description:

---------------


The Cobalt-class mining barge is a small civilian prospector vessel.

The vessel exhibits excellent maneuverability and is very easy to fly, but its protection is limited. Although it is typically equipped with a single self-defense turret alongside its mining beams, engaging in combat with actual combat vessels is strongly discouraged.

Adopted by the Union's Navy Material Logistics Command, the Cobalt-class serves as one of the smallest mining vessels deployed in proximity to government-operated resource operations facilities.
