HD-331 Seax

"To pilots, the Seax is a guardian angel. When you're floating in the cold void of space, the silhouette of the Seax coming is one of hope for pilots forced to eject."

- Commander Sang-Hun Kim

The is deep-space search and rescue dropship. While it is capable of operating in both atmosphere and exoatmospheric, its speciality almost entirely lies within the void. Designed and built to UNSCN specifications, the Seax is a vital support tool, flying out after combat to search for pilots ejected from their vessels, or pulling crew from stricken warships. Larger than a Pelican, the Seax contains onboard medical facilities, and a crew of rescue personnel with an rescue cable and EVA gear. On-board they carry necessary materials to cut through damaged hulls and bulkheads, and fire fighting equipment for making their way through damaged ships. In terms of Avionics, the Seax possesses incredibly acute sensors, needed to pickup a pilot spiralling through the void. As well as a long range radio system capable of picking up distant responders, it uses an extremely high resolution 360 degree RADAR, and a precision LIDAR, both capable of picking up an ejected pilot from some distance.

With any rescue, time is of the essence, so it carries high power engines allowing it to quickly respond, and also allow it to act as a tug for damaged vessels. For self defence, it carries 3 remote operated turrets, packing cannons and missiles to ward off potential threats.
